As recorded by Charley Crockett (2025 release) [Intro] D [Verse 1]
D
Well, I'm hard to understand

      G
And I can't work for the man

  A                                D
I earn my living playing one night show

D
On a long and winding road

        G
I don't care about where it goes

    A              G                      D
But every now and again, we come to Tennessee
[Verse 2]
D
Well, the memory, it stays with me

       G
I went on before the committee

            A                                 D
They put me up so late, the doggone joint was closed

D
But before they cut out the light

   G
On number eighty-two that night

A                   G                   D
A woman locking the door gave me good advice
[Chorus]
C        G               D
 "If you need some money fast

       C     G          D
Hit the Tennessee Quick Cash"
[Verse 3]
D
Now I know what you're about to say

 G
About their predatory ways

    A                                               D
But brother, at least they let you know it right up front

D
'Cause if you take that ride downtown

           G
Where them rounders hang around

       A                    G                D
You'll find anything in the world but a fair deal
[Chorus]
C       G               D
 If you need some money fast

            C     G          D
Just hit the Tennessee Quick Cash

D
Here's what I do when I walk in there
[Instrumental Break] D G A D [Verse 4]
D
It's been this way for years

      G
I cry alligator tears

A                             D
Something like Paradise Lost, I guess

D
Her name was Cheyenne

  G
I thanked her as I shook her hand

         A             G                         D
She said, "Honey, good luck, you're gonna need it"
[Chorus]
C       G                 D
 If you find your winning fix

C        G               D
 And you need some money fast

            C     G          D
Just hit the Tennessee Quick Cash

           C     G          D
I'd hit the Tennessee Quick Cash

D
Alright, Shooter
