Bowling Green

100%

I wish I was in Bowling Green sittin' in a chair
With one arm around this old guitar and another 'round my dear
Another 'round my dear

Bowling Green
Hey good old Bowling Green

I've been all around this whole wide world been to Tennessee
But there ain't no other place that I would rather be
That' s home sweet home to me

Well If I had a dollar for every song I've sung
I could live in Clover until my race was run
Until my race was run

But I ain't got a dollar I ain't got one thin dime
But I got a sweetie pie who loves me all the time
Who loves me all the time
