Working in Tennessee

Working in Tennessee - Merle Haggard
Well, I went down South to give 'em a hand
Wound up working at Opryland
Look at me, working at Tennessee
Got no money, got a lot of flies
Down here working with the rest of the guys
Look at me, working at Tennessee
Well I went down looking for Grandpa Jones
Wound up digging, digging up bones
Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
I went down looking to be a star
Wound up hocking my old guitar
Look at me, working at Tennessee
Well, the water came in, the water went out
Saw the Hall of Fame floating about
Look at me, working at Tennessee
