"Tennessee Walker" lyrics - THE BEAU BRUMMELS

THE BEAU BRUMMELS
"Tennessee Walker"

I've heard it said that thoroughbreds
Are stars above that shine
But one I know comes from below
That Mason-Dixon line

She's the cream of Kentucky
The Tennessee Walker
She sings a melody from
Way down Dixie
Louisiana robin on a sunny day
She moves me up and away

The mist of Mississippi
The Georgia sunrise
She came from Alabam'
With the banjo playing
A Carolina moon when
She comes out to play
She move me up and away

Away, away down south
In Dixie land
She is what I love about the South
Shut my mouth

[Instrumental bridge]

Smooth as Southern Comfort
When night is falling
Love is on her lips and
It's me she's calling
Turning low the light to show
Her loving ways
Unfuse me
She moves me up and away...
Up and away
I fell
Up and away...
Up and away
I fell
Up and away...
