Wish that I was on ole Rocky Top down in the Tennessee hills
Ain't no smoggy smoke up on Rocky Top ain't no telephone bills
Once I had a girl on ole Rocky Top part bear the other part cat
Wild as a mink but sweet as 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
[ banjo - mandolin ]
Once two strangers climbed old Rocky Top lookin' for a moonshine still
Strangers ain't come down from ol' Rocky Top reckon they never will
Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top dirt's too rocky by far
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top get their corn from a jar
Rocky Top you'll always be
[ fiddle ]
Rocky Top you'll always be
Rocky Top Tennessee
