Well, I went down South to give 'em a hand
Wound up workin' at Opryland
Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
Got no money, got a lot of flies
Down here workin' with the rest of the guys
Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
Well I went down lookin' for Grandpa Jones
Wound up diggin', diggin' up bones
Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
I went down lookin' to be a star
Wound up hockin' my ol' guitar
Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
Well, the water came in, the water went out
Saw the Hall of Fame floatin' about
Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
