Lyrics

Roll on, buddy, roll on Roll on, buddy, roll on Wouldn't roll so slow If you knew what I know So roll on, buddy, roll on

I'm going to that east pay road I'm going to that east pay road I'm going to that east, I'm going to the west I'm going to the one that I love best My home in down in Tennessee My home in down in Tennessee In sunny Tennessee, that's where I want to be Way down in sunny Tennessee I've got a good woman just the same I've got a good woman just the same Got a woman just the same, and I'm gonna change her name I've got a good woman just the same
