Tennessee Time Lyrics

Valerie June Tennessee Time

Runnin' on Tennessee time
Runnin' on Tennessee time
There's a tap on my window
There's a ring at my door
And I'll answer in Tennessee time
Houston's a hard town
New York's not for mine
Every town I drift through
I just can't unwind
New Orleans hustle
Keeps a woman down
Waters so high
I can't touch the ground

Thought there'd be something
In those bright lights
But all I got was lonely sleepless nights
Now I know what I didn't know back then
So when I get to Tennessee I'll never leave again
