If you are in school, at work, or at home, don't hesitate to sing along to the words below! Show people your true Rocky Top pride! Click here to listen to the music.



Wish that I was on ole rocky top,

Down in the tennessee hills.

Ain't no smoggy smoke on rocky top,

Ain't no telephone bills.



Once there was a girl on rocky top,

Half bear the other half cat.

Wild as a mink, sweet as soda pop,

I still dream about that.



Rocky top, you'll always be

Home sweet home to me.

Good ole rocky top,

Rocky top tennessee, rocky top tennessee.



Once two strangers climbed on rocky top,

Lookin' for a moonshine still.

Strangers ain't come back from rocky top,

Guess they never will.



Corn won't grow at all on rocky top,

Dirt's too rocky by far.

That's why all the folks on rocky top

Get their corn from a jar.



Rocky top, you'll always be

Home sweet home to me.

Good ole rocky top,

Rocky top tennessee, rocky top tennessee.



Now I've had years of cramped up city life,

Trapped like a duck in a pen.

Now all I know is it's a pity life

Can't be simple again.



Rocky top, you'll always be

Home sweet home to me.

Good ole rocky top,

Rocky top tennessee, rocky top tennessee.
