[Chanson: The Boy from New York City, the Girl from Tennessee]
Once I had a sweetheart
She meant the world to me
I met her on the road one night when we were in Tennessee
!7.161916k8201918 ..21i
I met her in a barroom after we'd done a show
We sat and talked about the Louvins 'til the 'tender called time to go
!7.161916k8201918 ..21i
She wrote her address on a napkin
I wrote mine on my CD
She said, It was sure nice talking to you
I said, You'll be hearing from me

I wrote her a letter the next day
She wrote one in return
The letters we wrote each other could have made the mailbox burn

Yo-de-lay-he-he-hoo
I wrote her a long letter and told her that I loved her so
And if she'd come to New York to the altar we would go

I sent it with a dozen roses and I waited for her reply
Til the day the letter came my way that made me want to die
!7.161916k8201918 ..21i
It said, I know that you love New York
So wild and fancy free
And I love you, dear,
But I also love my home in Tennessee
!7.161916k8201918 ..21i
Now I know that you'd be no more happy here than in the city I would be
So though I love you dear
I'm gonna stay right here
Home in Tennessee
!7.161916k8201918 ..21i
Yo-de-lay-he-he-hoo
And now I know I will never wed
But a bachelor I'll always be
'Cause my heart belongs to a pretty girl down in Tennessee
!7.161916k8201918 ..21i
Yo-de-lay-he-he-hoo
