As I listen to the wheels, hear them going round and round It reminds me of the train that still makes a lonely sound It reminds me of the girl that came from Knoxville town And how on that April day when she took this old boy down Oh, Tennessee, you got me running But I'm not coming back this time Way out west is where I'm goingTo forget the one I left behind Well, I might have seen Moses standing on the Penn State line Just another wanderer with an angel on his mind I know love it has its reasons, the way it comes and it goes There's no mystery in seasons or of this hard cold road Oh, Tennessee, you got me running And I'm not coming back this time Way out west is where I'm goingTo forget the one I left behind Oh, Tennessee, you got me running And I'm not coming back this time Way out west is where I'm goingTo forget the one I left behind Tennessee, you got me running And I'm not coming back this time Way out west is where I'm goingTo forget the one I left behind
