Tennessee - Gillian Welch

I kissed you 'cause I've never been an angel

I learned to say hosannas on my knees

But they threw me out of Sunday school when I was nine

And the sisters said I did just as I pleased

Even so I try to be a good girl

It's only what I want that makes me weak

I had no desire to be a child of sin

Then you went and pressed your whiskers to my cheek

Fa la la la

Fa la la lee

Now let me go my honey oh

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm working

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet heaven when I die

Now I've tried drinking rye and gamblin'

Dancing with damnation is a ball

But of all the little ways I've found to hurt myself

Well you might be my favorite one of all

Fa la la la

Fa la la lee

Now let me go my honey oh

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm working

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet heaven when I die

Why can't I go and live the life of riley

Why can't I go back home to apple pie

'Cause your affront to my virtue was a touch too much

But you left a little twinkle in my eye

Fa la la la

Fa la la lee

Now let me go my honey oh

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm working

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet heaven when I die

Now some will come confessing of transgressions

Some will come confessing of their love

You were there strumming on your gay guitar

You were trying to tell me something with your thumb

Fa la la la

Fa la la lee

Now let me go my honey oh

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm working

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet heaven when I die

It's beef steak when I'm working

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet heaven when I die

It's beef steak when I'm working

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet heaven when I die
