Dolly Parton - Rocky Top lyrics

(Boudleaux - Felice Bryant)

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 me a man on Rocky Top

Half bear the other half cat

Wild as a mink but he was sweet as soda pop

I still dream about that.

Chorus:

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

some say they never will.

Did you know that 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.

Chorus:

Rocky Top you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good old Rocky Top

Rocky Top, Tennessee

Rocky Top, Tennessee.

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 agian.

Chorus:

Rocky Top you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good old Rocky Top

Rocky Top, Tennessee

Rocky Top, Tennessee.

Rockey Top...
