Lyrics:
Goodnight Tennessee, go to sleep Tomorrow it's back to the city for me How lost can you be when fourteenth street Is guiding me home to a white sand beach Goodnight Tennessee, the talking trees Hover above while the red stars weep The season was brief, wrapped in fleece My roots they were weak, they could not grow deep I should have been born in Brooklyn But I missed my chance, I still got Berlin I should have been born free back then I was a late bloomin' kid at the orange curtain Goodnight Tennessee, happy deportee It is hot, it is cold, it is bitter, it is sweet But now I envy you and you envy me A toast to us both, may the grass stay green I can't miss a thing, freeze on three Every story it is told by the luck and key I can't miss a thing, freeze on three All my souvenirs have become antiques Hong Kong, Oakland, where have you been? I'd give all of my memories to see you again Hong Kong, Oakland, where have you been? I'd give all of my memories to see you again Will you take care of me Will you take care of me While I am away? While I am away? Every old friend I see I will kiss on the cheek I will jump up and down like the wars endin' Goodnight Tennessee, go to sleep Tomorrow it's back to the city for me Hong Kong, Oakland, where have you been? I'd give all of my memories to see you again Hong Kong, Oakland, where have you been? I'd give all of my memories but nothing's the same Goodnight Tennessee, yeah Goodnight Tennessee Goodnight Tennessee, go to sleep Goodnight Tennessee
