Lyrics
Cold iron shackles and ball and chain Listen to the whistle of the evening train You know you bound to wind up dead If you don't head back to Tennessee, Jed Rich man step on my poor head When you get back you better butter my bread Well, you know it's like I said You better head back to Tennessee, Jed Tennessee, Tennessee There ain't no place I'd rather be Baby, won't you carry me Back to Tennessee Drink all day and rock all night The law come to gеt you if you don't walk right Catch a few winks, baby, down under the bеd You better head back to Tennessee, Jed I dropped four flights and cracked my spine Honey, come quick with the iodine Well, you know it's like I said You better head back to Tennessee, Jed Tennessee, Tennessee There ain't no place I'd rather be Baby, won't you carry me Back to Tennessee I run into Charlie Phogg He blacked my eye and he kicked my dog My dog, he turned to me and he said: You better head back to Tennessee, Jed I woke up feeling mean I went down to play the slot machine The wheels turned around, and the letters read: You better head back to Tennessee, Jed Tennessee, Tennessee There ain't no place I'd rather be Baby, won't you carry me Back to Tennessee Tennessee, Tennessee There ain't no place I'd rather be Baby, won't you carry me Back to Tennessee
