East Tennessee Lyrics

You're like a sunset, in a valley back home

Like the sweet sound of summer, the birds singing along

If I die holding you, that's alright by me

My little angel, from East Tennessee

Stars in the sky can't compare

Rivers all flow somewhere

Down through the hollow, and out to the sea

Just bury my heart, In East Tennessee

The mountains all reach for, the heavens up high

The oaks in the valley, all open up wide

Hearts stand in silence, whenever you come around

Chimes they stop moving, and they don't make a sound

Stars in the sky can't compare

Rivers all flow somewhere

Down through the hollow, and out to the sea

Just bury my heart, In East Tennessee

If I die holding you, that's alright by me

My little angel, from East Tennessee

Stars in the sky can't compare

Rivers all flow somewhere

Down through the hollow, and out to the sea

Just bury my heart, In East Tennessee

Yeah bury my heart, In East Tennessee
