By Dolly Parton
"Wish that I was on ole 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.
Well he was as wild as a mink, but he was sweet as soda pop,
I often think about that.
Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Rocky Top,
Rocky top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.
Now once two strangers climbed on Rocky Top,
Lookin' for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top,
Some they never will.
Did you know corn don't grow at all on Rocky Top,
The dirt's too rocky by far.
And that's why all the folks on Rocky Top
Get their corn from a jar.
Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Rocky Top,
Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.
Now I've had years of cramped up city life,
Trapped like a duck in a pen.
All I know is it's a dang burn pity life
Can't be simple again.
Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole Rocky Top,
Rocky top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.
Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.
Rocky Top Tennesee eee eee eee.
Rock-ee-topp."
