A heart is all she asks of me
But apart is all we seem to be
Does she know I’m out here working for her hand?
She’s my lonesome gal from Tennessee
And I’m her guitar man

A song is all I’ve got to sing
This guitar is all I’ve thought to bring
As I worry, does she wonder where I am?
She’s my lonesome gal from Tennessee
And I’m her guitar man

I dust off my strings, and get a little loose on the side
I travel the country, singing my songs for a price
Is it foolish, am I vain, am I doing all I can?
For my lonesome gal from Tennessee, playing the guitar man

A gal is down in Tennessee
In her, a home I’ve come to see
As I’m holding on to hope she’ll understand
She’s my lonesome gal from Tennessee
And I’m her guitar man
