Loading...

[chorus]
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee

[verse 1]
when i was four, my loving mam
was cornered by the boss’ man
she turned her head and got struck down
they buried her in the cold, cold ground

[chorus]
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard, i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee

[verse 2]
when i was twelve, my father dear
was strong of arm and free of fear
until the day he raised his hand
then he was sold to alabam’

[chorus]
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard, i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee

[verse 3]
i was sixteen, found my bloom
and found my man, we jumped the broom
we pledged each other the rest of our lives
and on sat-rday nights, we were man and wife

[chorus]
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard, i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee

[verse 4]
i was eighteen, bugles called
the boys in blue came o’er the wall
i took my chance and followed free
they led the way to tennessee

[chorus]
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard, i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee

[verse 5]
here i sit in a tiny shack
with thirteen others at my back
i’ve sent you word, so all i can do
is wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait
and wait for you

[chorus]
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard, i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee
come love come, the road lies low
the way is long and hard, i know
come love come, the road lies free
i’ll wait for you in tennessee

[outro]
i’ll wait for you
i’ll wait for you
i’ll wait for you
i’ll wait for you
