Just another night at the Cotton Eyed Joe
I was there three beers before the show
You walked in like a neon smoking gun
You know what they say, a shooter's gonna shoot
So I took a shot and walked up to you
You smiled when I said I don't know where you're from

But, girl, you look like Tennessee trouble
The kind that I'm gonna fall for fast
You got me seein' Rocky Top double
Stealin' my heart between sips of that
Tullahoma whiskey, fire in your eyes
Girl, you gonna get me in Tennessee trouble tonight

Yeah, we danced to a slow song, kissed to the next one
You said: Let's take a shot, boy, you only live once
So that's the way we lived the rest of the night
Yeah, you and that ninety proof provin' me right

'Cause, girl, you look like Tennessee trouble
The kind that I'm gonna fall for fast
You got me seein' Rocky Top double
Stealin' my heart between sips of that
Tullahoma whiskey, fire in your eyes
Girl, you gonna get me in Tennessee trouble tonight

It turns out she was only in town a couple days
She was gone before the mornin' hangover went away
So I just keep on comin' back
Hopin' that she's comin' back
And if she does, I know what I'll say, hey

Girl, you look like Tennessee trouble
The kind that I'm gonna fall for fast
You got me seein' Rocky Top double
Stealin' my heart between sips of that
Tullahoma whiskey, fire in your eyes
Girl, you gonna get me in Tennessee trouble tonight

Yeah, Tennessee trouble tonight
Tennessee trouble
