[Verse 1]
It`s the liquor in my cup, it`s the tag on my truck
And the tag on the buck that I dropped Thanksgiving last season
TN
It`s the letters on my hat, it`s the dust on my dash
When I take my last breath, that`s the dirt that they gonna bury me in
TN

[Chorus]
It still got the JD in a Dixie, and the UT on the TV
And that smokey mountain smoke I`m breathin`
But I`d bet my last Rocky Top Dollar, that she`s in
In CO, or CA or back home in GA
Any place she won`t see me in
Now the one thing I was needin`
Is the only damn thing I couldn`t keep in TN

[Verse 2]
It`s that I-40 ride we took all the time
She took that night when I couldn`t talk her out of leavin`
TN
There ain`t еnough sad songs down in Nashville
Ain`t enough moonshine up in thеm hills
To give her a good reason to come on back to me in TN

[Chorus]
It still got the JD in a Dixie, and the UT on the TV
And that smokey mountain smoke I`m breathin`
But I`d bet my last Rocky Top Dollar, that she`s in
In CO, or CA or back home in GA
Any place she won`t see me in
Now the one thing I was needin`
Is the only damn thing I couldn`t keep in TN

[Bridge]
It`s the number she ain`t gonna pick up
I would`ve gone with her, but I couldn`t give up
I couldn`t give up

[Chorus]
All the JD in a Dixie, or the UT on the TV
And that smokey mountain smoke I`m breathin`
But I`d bet my last Rocky Top Dollar, that she`s in
In CO, or CA or back home in GA
Any place she won`t see me in
Now the one thing I was needin`
Is the only damn thing I couldn`t keep in TN
