Song Lyrics

I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band

Me and my woman's done made our plans
On the Tennessee River, walkin' hand in hand
Gonna raise a famly, Lord, settle down
Where peace and love can still be found

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band

This Mountain here, done left me strung
For Tennessee River and his mountain home
But I'm going back, leavin' today,
Found my homeland so far away

Driving down to dixie, wasting no time,
Back to the good life I left behind,
Going to the River, with my fishing line
Up on Look-out mountain 'bout supper time

Sing it,

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band

Oh, Tennessee River

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band
