Rocky Top you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good ole Rocky Top
Rocky Top Tennessee
 

I wish that I was on ole Rocky Top
Down in the Tennessee Hills
There ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top
There ain't no telephone bills


Once I had a girl on Rocky Top
Half bear the other half cat
Wild as a mink as sweet as soda pop
And I still dream about that


Once two strangers climbed up ole Rocky Top
Lookin' for a moonshine still
The strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top
Reckon they never will

Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top
Dirt's too rocky by far
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top
Drink their corn from a jar

I'm gonna love you I'm gonna love you
Till the stars in the skies start flickering out above you
I'm gonna love you I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna rock you in the cradle of a love so warm
And shelter you from every storm
That comes along and tries to cloud your sky
Trust in me cause I'll be standing by


I know you've had your share of ups and downs
And you feel just like you're in a circus running from the clowns
The times we live in makes you wonder which way you should go
But if you put your trust in me girl I want you to know


I'm gonna love you I'm gonna love you
Till the stars in the skies start flickering out above you
Girl I'm gonna love you I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna rock you in the cradle of a love so deep
That you can close your eyes and sleep
Through the darkest night without a care
Count on me 'cause baby I'll be there


I know you'd like to run and hide your face
Cause I guess it seems like all your dreams just never fall in place
It's hard to live on promises that vanish in the night
But if you trust me just a little I can make it right make it right

Love, love will keep us together
Think of me girl whenever
Some sweet talking guy comes along singing a song
Don't mess around,
You gotta be strong
Just Stop [stop], 'cause I really love You
Stop [stop], I'll be thinking of you
Look in my heart and let love keep us together, whatever

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I needed the shelter of someone's arms, baby
Right there you were
When I needed someone to share my ups and downs, honey
Right there you were
With sweet love and devotion deeply touching my emotions


I wanna stop
And thank you baby
I just wanna stop
And thank you baby


How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by


You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see


You're everything I've hoped for
You're everything I'll ever need
You are so beautiful to me
 

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
(makes me nauseous)
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water is so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high


Somebody told me a long long time ago
Remember when you need something to believe in
Look in my eyes and find your heaven
I'll make it happen
I need to know you're there


For there's just too many lonely people in this world
Who are undecided
Just too many broken people afraid to take a stand
Just too many people who are livin' in a house divided
Loneliness and sorrow
Is more than I can stand

As I read the letters that you wrote to me
It's you that I am thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love


I miss you darlin' more and more everyday
As Heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat I still think of you
And remember our faded love


As I think of the past all the pleasures we had
As we watch the mating of the doves
It was in the Spring time that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love

A long time forgotten are dreams that just felt by the way
And the good life he promised ain't what she's livin' today
Though she never complains of the bad times and bad things he's done
(you sorry rascal, you ain't worth nothin')
She's just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to come
 

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves him in spite of his wicked ways she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter they'll pass though his world hand in hand
A good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
 

(two, three, four, same song, second verse)
He likes the bright lights and night life and good timin' friends
When the party's all over she'll welcome him back home again
(I love you, I love you, I truly love you)
Though she don't understand all the bad times and the bad things he's done
(she has an I.Q. of 37)
She's just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to come

We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never want to see you again
But I want you to know that after all these years
That you're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear


You're still the one I want to talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun and you're still the one


I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came oh I just wanted to go (wanted to go)
Deep in the desert I longed for the snow


You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that's my better half
We're still having fun and you're still the one
You're still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I want to take along
We're still having fun and you're still the one (yes you are)


Changing our love is growing old
But even though we grow old it feels new


You're still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We're still having fun and you're still the one


You're still the one that'll scratch my itch
You're still the one and I wouldn't switch
We're still having fun and you're still the one
You are still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun and you're still the one
 

Life is like a mountain railway
With an engineer that’s brave
We must make the run successful
From the cradle to the grave
Watch the curves, the hills, the tunnels
Never falter never fail
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eyes upon the rail

Blessed Savior Thou will guide us
Till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In Thy praise forevermore

As you roll across the trestle
Spanning Jordan’s swelling tide
You'll behold the Union Depot
Into which your soul will glide
There you’ll meet the Superintendent
God, the Father, God the Son
With the extended hands He'll greet you
“Weary Pilgrim, welcome home!”

I've got a moon out my window in the night
And I've got a sun out my doorway when it gets light
I've got stones on the mountain
And the clear, blue wind-swept sky


Thank you, Lord
You made it right
You made it right


And I've got a woman who loves me when I'm gone
And I've got stars to find me the way back home
And I got rain in the morning when I'm stranded all alone

I've been standin' on a hillside in the night, yes I have
And I've been singin' 'bout the good things and the light
Well there's a new star on the horizon and it nearly fills the sky

Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away look away look away Dixieland

Oh I wish I was in Dixie away away
In Dixieland I'll take my stand to live and die in Dixie
In Dixieland where I was born
Early on one frosty morning
Look away look away look away Dixieland

Glory glory hallelujah
Glory glory hallelujah
Glory glory hallelujah
His Truth is marching on

So hush little baby
Don't you cry
You know your daddy's bound to die
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

If livin' was a thing that money could buy
You know the rich and the poor would surely die
All my trials, Lord, soon be over

I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in
And then a little light from Heaven filled my soul
It bathed my heart in love and He wrote my name above
And just a little talk with Jesus makes me whole


(Now let us) have a little talk with Jesus
(Let us) tell him all about our troubles
(He will) hear our faintest cry
(And He will) answer by and by
(Now when you) feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
(Lord you) know a little fire is burnin'
(You will) find a little talk with Jesus makes it right


I may have doubts and fears, my eyes be filled with tears
But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night
I go to Him in prayer He knows my every care
And just a little talk with Jesus makes it right
