lyrics

Tennessee Mornings

Tennessee mornings can look mighty clean
Early in autumn or late in the spring
But winter she sings with a whole 'nother song
And rhythm that I cannot follow along

Well farewell my friends my time here is ending
The fences have fallen and need jumping or mending
I got nothing to leave ya in the way of advice
'Cause I'm too old to know I'm too young to be wise

Come on compadre, it's time to get gone
Put our backs to the sun as it starts to dawn
We'll roll down the highway singing this song
And looking for something that most folks call home

The past, he's a soldier who wants to be healed
The future, I see through this dirty windshield
Right now, she stands like a child on the street
One hand in the air wanting something to eat

Yesterday morning I felt the breath
Of winter so I know there ain't much time left
Load up my lady I guess we should leave
While the autumn's a-sighing and the morning's still clean
