Blame Tennessee Lyrics

Daddy's daughter, 100 proof, pretty lady
But I shoot from the hip, tell the truth
Yeah, yeah, I always do
Yes to mama, no to rules
Yes to love, no to fools
You don't have a silver spoon
You learn to do what you gotta do
You can't outrun where you come from, so you might as well get used to you
I might not be for everyone, and why would I want to?

'Cause some girls dream of a white picket fence while they sit by the fireside
But I dream of what I'm gonna do getting drunk on a Friday night
Shots go up on this side of town
Mess around and find out that I'm rough around the edges
Mean it and I said it, bet you won't forget it
Don't blame me, blame Tennessee
Blame Tennessee

I'ma live, Beale Street, barbecue
Sweet songs that you never knew
Break your heart right into two
Guess I'm the Memphis blues
Sunset on a river right behind me
Straight shot down 40 US is where you'll find me

'Cause some girls dream of a white picket fence while they sit by the fireside
But I dream of what I'm gonna do getting drunk on a Friday night
Shots go up on this side of town
Mess around and find out that I'm rough around the edges
Mean it and I said it, bet you won't forget it
Don't blame me, blame Tennessee
Blame Tennessee

I'm just a little too rough, too tough, too much, not enough
Take me as I am or not at all
But it ain't my fault 'cause I'm not

Some girls dream of a white picket fence while they sit by the fireside
But I dream of what I'm gonna do getting drunk on a Friday night
Shots go up on this side of town
Me and my friends all hangin' out
Ain't no cap, screamin' loud
We don't judge, you can come around
Shots go up on this side of town
Mess around and find out that I'm rough around the edges
Mean it and I said, bet you won't forget it
Don't blame me, blame Tennessee
Blame Tennessee

Blame Tennessee
