(Jimmy Work)

Her eyes were blue, her hair was auburn
Her smile was like an angel dear
She was her daddy's only daughter
On the Tennessee border.

One night I took a ride just across the line
I picked her up in my pickup truck and she broke this heart of mine
Her mother said no she's my only daughter
But we got married on the Tennesse border.

The roses were bloomin' on the border
The moon was shinin' from above
I fell in love the night I saw her
On the Tennessee border.

One night I took a ride just across the line
I picked her up in my pickup truck and she broke this heart of mine
Her mother said no she's my only daughter
But we got married on the Tennesse border...
