[00:00.00]Tennessee - Gillian Welch
[00:16.12]I kissed you 'cause I've never been an angel
[00:22.18]
[00:23.93]I learned to say hosannas on my knees
[00:31.67]But they threw me out of Sunday school when I was nine
[00:37.95]
[00:40.11]And the sisters said I did just as I pleased
[00:45.19]
[00:52.13]Even so I try to be a good girl
[00:57.29]
[01:00.04]It's only what I want that makes me weak
[01:05.13]
[01:08.77]I had no desire to be a child of sin
[01:15.57]Then you went and pressed your whiskers to my cheek
[01:21.03]
[01:24.64]Fa la la la
[01:28.20]Fa la la lee
[01:32.35]Now let me go my honey oh
[01:36.21]Back to Tennessee
[01:40.13]It's beef steak when I'm working
[01:43.78]Whiskey when I'm dry
[01:48.31]Sweet heaven when I die
[01:53.63]
[02:11.80]Now I've tried drinking rye and gamblin'
[02:19.82]Dancing with damnation is a ball
[02:27.24]But of all the little ways I've found to hurt myself
[02:35.71]Well you might be my favorite one of all
[02:43.83]Fa la la la
[02:47.40]Fa la la lee
[02:51.94]Now let me go my honey oh
[02:55.74]Back to Tennessee
[02:59.50]It's beef steak when I'm working
[03:03.88]Whiskey when I'm dry
[03:07.95]Sweet heaven when I die
[03:12.39]
[03:31.94]Why can't I go and live the life of riley
[03:39.46]Why can't I go back home to apple pie
[03:47.06]'Cause your affront to my virtue was a touch too much
[03:55.04]But you left a little twinkle in my eye
[04:03.35]Fa la la la
[04:07.50]Fa la la lee
[04:11.64]Now let me go my honey oh
[04:15.54]Back to Tennessee
[04:19.08]It's beef steak when I'm working
[04:23.11]Whiskey when I'm dry
[04:27.60]Sweet heaven when I die
[04:41.88]
[04:51.58]Now some will come confessing of transgressions
[04:57.35]
[04:59.58]Some will come confessing of their love
[05:05.45]
[05:07.75]You were there strumming on your gay guitar
[05:14.09]You were trying to tell me something with your thumb
[05:23.37]Fa la la la
[05:27.52]Fa la la lee
[05:31.19]Now let me go my honey oh
[05:35.32]Back to Tennessee
[05:38.88]It's beef steak when I'm working
[05:42.11]Whiskey when I'm dry
[05:47.21]Sweet heaven when I die
[05:55.57]It's beef steak when I'm working
[05:59.38]Whiskey when I'm dry
[06:03.76]Sweet heaven when I die
[06:08.85]
[06:11.58]It's beef steak when I'm working
[06:16.02]Whiskey when I'm dry
[06:19.84]Sweet heaven when I die
