My Tennessee Mountain Home
Serenity in Tennessee: A Musical Journey Through Simple JoysLyrics
Sittin' on the front porch on a summer afternoon
Sitting on the front porch, enjoying a summer afternoon
In a straight-back chair on two legs, leaned against the wall
In a straight-back chair, leaning against the wall
Watch the kids a-playin' with June bugs on a string
Observing children playing with June bugs tied to strings
And chase the glowin' fireflies when evenin' shadows fall
Chasing glowing fireflies as evening shadows appear
In my Tennessee mountain home
Describing the singer's Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
Life in the mountain home is peaceful, akin to a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Reiterating the serene nature of the Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
Crickets create a melodic ambiance in the nearby fields
Honeysuckle vine clings to the fence along the lane
Describing a honeysuckle vine along the fence by the lane
Their fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet
The fragrance of honeysuckle adds sweetness to the summer wind
And on a distant hilltop, an eagle spreads it's wings
On a distant hilltop, an eagle spreads its wings
An' a songbird on a fence post sings a melody
A songbird on a fence post sings a melody
In my Tennessee mountain home
Reiteration of the peaceful life in the Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
Life is tranquil, comparable to a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Emphasizing the calmness of the Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
Crickets continue to sing in the nearby fields
Walkin' home from church on Sunday with the one ya' love
Walking home from church on Sunday with a loved one
Just laughin', talkin', making future plans
Laughing, talking, and making future plans together
And when the folks ain't lookin', you might steal a kiss or two
Indulging in stolen kisses when unobserved
Sittin' in the porch swing, holdin' hands
Sitting in the porch swing, holding hands
In my Tennessee mountain home
Reiteration of the peaceful life in the Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
Life remains tranquil, comparable to a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Emphasizing the calmness of the Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
Crickets continue to sing in the nearby fields
Mm-mm
Expressing a soothing hum or acknowledgment (mm-mm)
