Lyrics
My Tennessee Gal By: Duncan Young
When I first saw her walking by
I tried my best to look real shy
I turned and started to walk away
Then like a cat she started to play
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee dove
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee love
We fell in love that summer night
I promised her I'd do her right
I went searching for a brand new start
But I soon knew that I left my heart
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee dove
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee love
I left looking for future and fame
I found out every place was the same
I'm going back where the grass is green
To the prettiest girl I've ever seen
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee dove
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee love
Now I know that everything is here
With my little gal I hold so dear
You can find true wealth without the greed
Her love is all the treasure I need
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee dove
She's my Tennessee gal, she's my Tennessee love
