In Tennessee - all parts, I believe - love is a funny thing
Its the only state I've ever lived in
It doesn't at all make me want to sing
but it sometimes makes me wish I could
And it truly is funny, not at all like peculiar funny, though it certainly is,
I believe, but like funny, truly
Don't think I've never been out of Tennessee
It's funny for whatever reason you want it to be
And that will be the difference (it won't)
Between you and me. But in Tennessee
There are so many different kinds - but they can be so similar
In both feeling and thought, yet so terribly different,
In both feeling and thought, but probably more in feeling than thought.
Everyone knows this, children through and through,
but they don't find it funny as we do, and we do. If you go to Tennessee
"Looking for Love," I'm sure you'll find it, whether you know it or not.
If you don't, then it probably doesn't matter anymore. You
Should remember childhood, if not even yours,
and you should try, just once more.
Its not Tennessee, its not you and me,
its nothing between us three. Its not even about love, Tennessee
But thats probably what makes it funny.
