Drew Holcomb And The Neighbors - Tennessee lyrics

When I was a boy I didn't know nothing I didn't have a care in the world I had innocence and ignorance Of things I wish I still did not know But no matter how far these songs take me If my dreams come true Or the heartaches break me No matter where I make my bed I long for you Tennessee, Tennessee I was born here and raised here And I'll make my grave here It's home, Tennessee We've all got a story frozen in time People and places of living and dying Heartbeats and breathing Just trying to make sense of it all I am the second-born of my mother and father These lion-hearted men She's a Jesus-loving woman And no matter how far I roam I always belong To Tennessee, Tennessee I was born here and raised here And I'll make my grave here It's home, Tennessee It's not just geography, it's a part of me The air I breathe And we've got a history And the blood runs through Tennessee, Tennessee Tennessee, Tennessee I was born here and raised here And I'll make my grave here It's home, Tennessee
