Wish That I Was On Old Rockytop
Down In The Tennessee Hills.
Ain't No Smoggy Smoke On Rockytop
Ain't No Telephone Bills.

Once I Had A Girl On Rockytop
Half Bear, The Other Half Cat,
Wild As A Mink, But Sweet As Soda-pop
I Still Dream About That.

Rockytop, You'll Always Be
Home Sweet Home To Me.
Good Old Rockytop,
Rockytop, Tennessee.
Rockytop, Tennessee.

Once Two Strangers Climbed Old Rockytop
Lookin' For A Moonshine Still.
Strangers Ain't Come Down From Rockytop,
Reckon They Never Will.

Corn Won't Grow At All On Rockytop -
Dirt's Too Rocky By Far.
That's Why All The Folks On Rockytop
Get Their Corn From A Jar.

(chorus)

I've Had Years Of Cooped Up City Life,
Trapped Like A Dog In A Pen.
All I Know Is It's A Pity Life
Can't Be Simple Again.

(chorus)
