My Little Girl in Tennessee

Oh, a long long time ago when I left my home alone
 Down in the hills of Tennessee
 Was the sweetest little girl that was ever in this world
 Little girl of mine in Tennessee
 Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee
 I know she's waiting there for me
 Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
 With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
 She begged me not to go, You'll be sorry dear, I know
 For the way that you've been treating me
 I have rambled all around but there's no one else I've found
 Who could take the place of her in Tennessee
 Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee
 I know she's waiting there for me
 Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
 With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
 Someday I'll wander back to that little run down shack
 And that little girl that's waiting there for me
 I can see her smiling face waiting for me at the gate
 Oh, the little girl of mine in Tennessee
 Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee
 I know she's waiting there for me
 Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
 With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
