Lyrics

Here are just the lyrics, ready for you to copy and paste:

I was liftin’ iron at the gym one day,
Sweat on my brow, just grindin’ away,
Then she walked in with a West Coast grin,
A Washington girl, where do I begin?
Hair like the rain on a Puget Sound night,
Eyes so deep, they stole the light,
She said, “Hey there, boy, you from around?”
I said, “Tennessee born, but I’m yours now.”
Oh, my Washington girl in a Tennessee world,
Spinnin’ my heart like a flag unfurled,
From the gym to the streets, we found our tune,
Dancin’ slow ‘neath a Knoxville moon.
Every bench downtown knows our name,
Ice cream kisses, love’s sweet game,
She’s my rain, I’m her clay,
A country love in the Volunteer way.
I remember the day we went downtown,
Sun shinin’ bright on that old brick town,
Got ice cream cones from a corner stand,
Chocolate drippin’ on her tremblin’ hand.
We laughed so hard, the world slowed down,
Strolled through Knoxville, no cares around,
Sat on a bench by the river’s flow,
Her lips met mine, and time let go.
Oh, my Washington girl in a Tennessee world,
Spinnin’ my heart like a flag unfurled,
From the gym to the streets, we found our tune,
Dancin’ slow ‘neath a Knoxville moon.
Every bench downtown knows our name,
Ice cream kisses, love’s sweet game,
She’s my rain, I’m her clay,
A country love in the Volunteer way.
Makin’ out on every bench we’d find,
Old folks smilin’, didn’t seem to mind,
From Gay Street lights to the Henley glow,
We carved our love where the memories grow.
She’d tease me soft with that Northwest drawl,
I’d pull her close, say, “Darlin’, that’s all,”
Two worlds collided, and I’ll be damned,
She’s my forever in this Volunteer land.
Oh, my Washington girl in a Tennessee world,
Spinnin’ my heart like a flag unfurled,
From the gym to the streets, we found our tune,
Dancin’ slow ‘neath a Knoxville moon.
Every bench downtown knows our name,
Ice cream kisses, love’s sweet game,
She’s my rain, I’m her clay,
A country love in the Volunteer way.
Yeah, she’s my rain, I’m her clay,
A Washington girl in Tennessee to stay,
Met her at the gym, but she stole my soul,
Now we’re writin’ love on Knoxville’s scroll.
