ROCKY TOP (FIGHT SONG FOR THE TENNESSEE VOLS )

WORDS AND MUSIC BY: BOUDLEAUX BRYANT AND FELICE BRYANT


D               G             D
WISH THAT I WAS ON OLD ROCKY TOP 
Bm          A7         D
DOWN IN THE TENNESSEE HILLS
D            G         D
AINT NO SMOGGY SMOKE ON ROCKY TOP 
BM        A7          D
AINT  NO  TELEPHONE BILLS 

ONCE I HAD A GIRL ON ROCKY TOP 
HALF BEAR THE OTHER HALF CAT 
WILD AS A MINK BUT SWEET AS SODA POP
I STILL THINK ABOUT THAT 

Bm                 A
ROCKY TOP YOU’’LL ALWAYS BE 
C                  G
HOME SWEET HOME TO ME 
                D
GOOD OL ROCKY TOP 
          C       D
ROCKY TOP TENNESSEE 



ONCE TWO STRANGERS CLIMBED ON ROCKY TOP
LOOKING FOR A MOONSHINE STILL 
STRANGERS AINT COME DOWN FROM ROCKY TOP 
RECON THEY NEVER WILL 

CORN WON’T GROWN AT ALL ON ROCKY TOP 
DIRTS TO ROCKY BY FAR 
THAT’S WHY ALL THE FOLKS ON ROCKY TOP 
GET THEIR CORN FROM A JAR 

REPEAT CHORUS 

I HAVE YEARS OF CRAMPED OF CITY LIFE 
TRAPPED LIKE A DUCK IN A PEN 
ALL I KNOW IS IT’S A PITY LIFE 
CANT BE SIMPLE AGAIN 

REPEAT CHORUS ( TILL YOUR BLUE IN THE FACE  )
