(darryl worley/steve leslie)

worked all week, got it all done
let´s make a tennessee river run

hey everybody, i think the time is right
let´s get together down where the catfish bite
cooped up all winter waitin´ on a day like this
it´s the way i feel when i´m rockin´ on the water
baby that i can´t resist

bbq grill, summertime jam
just a mile above the pickwick dam
party on the water, whole lotta fun
time to make a tennessee river run

i´ll get my bass boat, crank up your party barge
we´ll drop these anchors out where the big boats are
break out a cooler, pass out some ice cold beer
look at all the people out here on the water
man i can´t believe we´re here

swingin´ on a rope, gonna have a ball
jumpin´ off the yellow creek waterfall
checking out the honeys baking in the sun
god bless a tennessee river run

doo-doo-n-dee-dee
oh what a weekend, we´ve had some time to play
i should be leavin´ tomorrow´s a work week day
i just might call in, tell ´em that i can´t get home
does anybody else want to stay a little longer
or am i gonna be alone?

floatin´ on a tube, gonna weigh a ton
cajun sausage on a hot dog bun
bbq grill, summertime jam
just a mile above the pickwick dam

party on the water, whole lotta fun
time to make a tennessee river run

doo-doo-n-dee-dee

nothing like a tennessee river run
i love a tennessee river run
whoop up a tennessee river run
