Well, wish that I was on ole rocky top, Down in the Tennessee hills. Ain't no smoggy smoke on rocky top, Ain't no telephone bills.
Corn won't grow at all on rocky top, Dirt's too rocky by far. That's why all them folks on rocky top Get their corn from a jar.
Rocky top, you'll always be Home sweet home to me. Good ole rocky top, Rocky top Tennessee, rocky top Tennessee.
Now I've had years of cramped-up city life, Trapped like a duck in a pen. Now all I know is it's a pity life Can't be simple again. Once there was a girl on rocky top, Half bear, the other half cat. Wild as a mink but sweet as a soda pop, I still dream about that.
Rocky top, you'll always be Home sweet home to me. Good ole rocky top, Rocky top Tennessee, rocky top Tennessee.
