Cold iron shackles, ball and chain.

Listen to the whistle of the evenin' train.

  You know you,  bound to,  wind up dead.

Rich man step on my poor head.

When you get back, you better butter my bread.

Tennessee, Tennessee, there ain't no place I'd rather be.

Baby won't you carry me...    back to Tennessee.

Drink all day and rock all night.

  Got a letter this mornin' children and,  all it read:

     F                   G         C     C G C
"You better head back to Tennessee Jed."

I dropped four flights and cracked my spine.

Honey, come quick with the iodine.

  Catch a few winks, baby now,  under the bed.

Then you head back to Tennessee Jed.

I run into Charlie Fog.

Blacked my eye and he kicked my dog.

C          Cdim7       Dm7         C    C7
  My doggie, turned to me,  and he said.

F                   G        C      C G C
"Let's head back to Tennesse Jed."

C                        C G C
I woke up feelin' mean.

I went down to play the slot machine.

  The wheels turned around and the,  letters read:
