Jessie, come home
She's just a girl
Not yet set in her ways
She wants to travel round the world
Maybe get lost in a haze
Let freedom ring
It's the American way
She packed up her dancing shoes
Mama was a phone call away
♪
She hit the road, like the beat of a drum
Took on her middle name
Cause Jessie's way over done
♪
And as the night closes in
And that moon comes out
She wants the heat from the strip
And feel the light shining down
But if you get lost in the crowd, babe
And they spit you out
You can turn it all around to your Tennessee house
Your little Tennessee house
♪
Your little Tennessee house
♪
We met in Vegas
Man, the place never sleeps
And neither did we after we tore up the sheets
We kissed good morning
She was well on her way
Give her guns or send her roses
Man, to her it's the same
And as the night closes in
And that moon comes out
She wants the heat off the strip
And feel the light shining down
But if you get lost in the crowd, babe
And they spit you out, girl
You can turn it all around to your Tennessee house
Oh, your little Tennessee house
What is she searching for
Oh, she always wants something else
Is this our last go round?
Is this our last go round?
Is this our last go round?
Ohhh
And as the night closes in
And that moon comes out
She wants the heat off the strip
And feel the light shining down
Ohhh
But if you get lost in the crowd, girl
And they spit you out, baby
You can turn it all around to your Tennessee house
Oh, I'll be your Tennessee house
(Tennessee mouse)
I'll be your Tennessee house
(Tennessee mouse)
She's just a Tennessee girl
Not yet set in her ways
She's bound to travel round the world
Maybe get lost in the haze
