Megan Moroney – Tennessee Orange Lyrics
I met somebody and he’s got blue eyes
He opens the door and he don’t make me cry…
In Georgia, they’d call it a sin
I’m wearin’ Tennessee orange for him..
Mama, I’m callin’, I’ve got some news
Don’t you tell Daddy, he’ll blow a fuse
Don’t worry, I’m doin’ okay
I know you raised me to know right from wrong
It ain’t what you think and I’m still writin’ songs
Just never thought I’d see the day
I’ve never felt this way
[Chorus:]
I met somebody and he’s got blue eyes
He opens the door and he don’t make me cry
He ain’t from where we’re from, but he feels like home, yeah
He’s got me doin’ things I’ve never done
In Georgia, they’d call it a sin
I’m wearin’ Tennessee orange for him
Took me to Knoxville last Saturday
And I wore the hat on his dash to the game
It sure wasn’t Athens, but I
Fell for him under those Neyland lights
[Chorus.]
Mama, forgive me, I like him a lot
Hell, I’m learnin’ the words to “Old Rocky Top”
He’s got a smile that makes me forget
I’ve always looked better in red
[Chorus.]
I’m wearin’ Tennessee orange for him
