[1] I've been all around this whole wide world
And I've [5] been down to sunny Tenne-[5]-ssee
I've [5] been down to sunny Tenne-[5]-ssee

Raleigh and Spencer they're burning down
And there ain't no more whiskey in this town
No there ain't no more whiskey in this town

I've played cards with the king and queen
And I've gambled the ace and the trey
I've gambled the ace and the trey

Whatcha gonna do when the women are all gone
I'll hang my head and I'll cry
I'll hang my head and I'll cry

Well You can trample the flowers all around my grave
But they'll rise and bloom again
They'll rise and bloom again
