Lyrics
Traveling has always been my pleasure - Seeing things I’ve never seen before Eating food that I have never tasted - And meeting people walking on the shore I love taking in the local culture - Whenever I am far away from home And I think that the Pope would like to meet me - If I ever get the chance to visit Rome CHORUS: The Grand Canyon has no other equal The waters of the ocean hold a special place for me But, I would rather live my life close to the Smokey Mountains In western Appalachia known as southeast Tennessee I took a cruise to Caribbean Islands - And climbed the rocks along Dunn’s River Falls I swam with the dolphins in Grand Cayman - And held a Ridley’s turtle with its mighty snapping jaws There are so many places I would visit - I don’t know if I will ever see them all Because the place I live has much to offer - Like the birds who come in winter and the colors of the fall CHORUS BRIDGE: Tennessee, Tennessee Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville, Chattanooga, Big Sandy Tennessee, Tennessee No, I wasn’t born here but I never want to leave
