Jay Gavin - North of Tennessee Lyrics

Well I don't lock my door anymore and I don't ever worry
And I take the long way home cause I ain't in a hurry

Yeah that's right most folks here are polite
And those north east winds blow mighty cold
But far and wide we're still standing outside
Cause we keep our beer out in the snow

And I've been all over everywhere and I've sailed in every sea
But I always find my way back home
South of heaven north of Tennessee

I've been to Texas as a younger man
And I ain't gonna lie I tried to stay
I was living in a van smoking speed from a can
Till the law said you best be on your way

Now I don't lock my door anymore and I don't ever worry
And I take the long way home cause I ain't in a hurry

And I've been all over everywhere and I've sailed in every sea
But I always find my way back home
South of heaven north of Tennessee

Our hearts are just a glowing we're the true north strong and free
From the forest down to the waters we keep em' glorious and clean
And we stand in the mountains in the prairies and the streams
Oh C-A N-A D-A we stand on guard for thee

And I've been all over everywhere and I've sailed in every sea
But I always find my way back home
South of heaven north of Tennessee
