Her eyes were blue, her hair was auburn Her smile was like an angel fair She was her daddy`s only daughter On the Tennessee Border [Chorus] One night I took a ride just across the line I picked her up in a pickup truck And she broke this heart of mine Her mama said: "No-o, she`s my only daughter," But we got married on the Tennessee Border. The roses were bloomin` there on the Border The moon was shinin` there Her personality made me want her On the Tennessee Border. [Chorus]
