Rocky Top
Composer(s): Boudleaux Bryant; Felice Bryant
Performer(s): Osborne Brothers



I wish that I was on old Rocky Top 
Down in the Tennessee hills 
Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top 
Ain't 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 dream about that 

Rocky Top you'll always be 
Home sweet home to me 
Good old Rocky Top 
Rocky Top Tennessee Rocky Top Tennessee 

Once two strangers climbed old Rocky Top 
Lookin' for a moonshine still 
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top 
Reckon they never will 

Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top 
Dirt's too rocky by far 
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top 
Get their corn from a jar 

I've had years of cramped up city life 
Trapped like a duck in a pen 
All I know is it's a pity life 
Can't be simple again
