I'm gonna stop singin' them old sad songs
I ain't gonna cry no more
The next time you look at me cross-eyed
I'm a-headin' right for that door
Now I got a woman down in Nashville
And I know that she's thinkin' of me
I'm gonna hijack one of those big jet planes
I'm goin' back to Tennessee
I was livin' up in Detroit, just me and my little wife
I did everything that I could do, but I got no ambition in life
I'm tired of sniffin' glue, I wanna breathe that southern breeze
I'm gonna hijack one of those big jet planes
I'm goin' back to Tennessee
I was workin' up in Chicago, a way out on the west side
Workin' real hard at two jobs a day, she's sayin' that I never tried
I come home last week and found my baby cheatin' on me
I'm gonna hijack one of those big jet planes
I'm goin' back to Tennessee
