Tennessee
Tennessee (x8)
Lord I've really been real stressed
Down and out, losin ground
Although I am black and proud
Problems got me pessimistic
Brothers and sisters keep messin up
Why does it have to be so damn tough?
I don't know where I can go
To let these ghosts out of my skull
My grandma past, my brothers gone
I never at once felt so alone
I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel
Not just my spare tire (home)
But lord I ask you (home)
To be my guiding force and truth (home)
For some strange reason it had to be (home)
He guided me to Tennessee (home)
(Chorus x2) Take me to another place
Take me to another land
Make me forget all that hurts me
Let me understand your plan
Lord it's obvious we got a relationship
Talkin to each other every night and day
Although you're superior over me
We talk to each other in a friendship way
Then outta nowhere you tell me to break
Outta the country and into more country
Past Dyesburg into Ripley
Where the ghost of childhood haunts me
Walk the roads my forefathers walked
Climbed the trees my forefathers hung from
Ask those trees for all their wisdom
They tell me my ears are so young (home)
Go back to from whence you came (home)
My family tree my family name (home)
For some strange reason it had to be (home)
He guided me to Tennessee (home)
Chorus x2
Teshee?
She went down to Hollis Springs
Rising bobber?
He went down to peace street
Headliner?
I challenged him to a game of horseshoes
I gave him a horeshoe
Now I see the importance of history
Why my people be in the mess that they be
Many journeys to freedom made in vain
By brothers on the corner playin ghetto games
I ask you lord why you enlightened me
Without the enlightment of all my folks
He said cuz I set myself on a quest for truth
And he was there to quench my thirst
But I am still thirsty...
The lord allowed me to drink some more
He said what I am searchin for are
The answers to all which are in front of me
The ultimate truth started to get blurry
For some strange reason it had to be
It was all a dream about Tennessee
Chorus x2 (Ohhhh)
Wont let me
Wont you help me
Wont you help me
Tell me how
Tell me how
How
Take me
To another place
Take me home
Woahhhh
Now I need to go home
Woahhhh
Yeahhhh
Tennessee
I dont want a horseshoe now I want a watermelon
Lets go climb trees
Screechers hair?
It looks like a turkey right?
Tennessee?
