My home ain't here its in dear old Tennessee My home ain't here its in dear old Tennessee And you mistreat a good man when you mistreat poor me Lord send me a woman who will treat me nice and kind Lord send me a woman who will treat me nice and kind I'm tired of living alone want someone to satisfy my mind Yes what's the use of loving when I don't see why I should Yes what's the use of loving when I don't see why I should And when the one you loving don't mean you no good And if you don't want me baby please don't dog me 'round If you don't want me baby please don't dog me 'round And it seems like you leaving you want to throw your daddy down Think I hear that train whistle blowing, it must have come after me Think I hear that train whistle blowing, it must come after me I'm leaving town baby going back to dear old Tennessee
