Mama I guess you heard I got married in Tennessee I got a blue-eyed girl Who thinks the world of me We got a cabin in the country And a creek that rolls nearby And a dog that won't even bark at a firefly Our clothes lines hang just outside our backdoor And there's a tire that swings in the air Ten feet or more There's a church I can't seem to find On Sunday mornin' But I sure found the place that I belong in And we wear blue jeans And big green beans Spend the summertime naturally high By chopping wood for next winters fire Saving our money for the county fair George Jones' supposed to be there We got forty acres of corn in the ground Tennessee taters we sell by the pound Proud as we can be To live in Tennessee Mama you and dad gotta come stay with us sometime I know you love that sweet little gal of mine You and her could talk about babies Make some home made apple pie While me and dad could take a walk Maybe talk about old times And we wear blue jeans And big green beans Spend the summertime naturally high By chopping wood for next winters fire Saving our money for the county fair George Jones' supposed to be there We got forty acres of corn in the ground Tennessee taters we sell by the pound Proud as we can be That we live in Tennessee We are proud as we can be To be from Tennessee We are proud as we can be To be from Tennessee

Dans cette chanson, un homme raconte avec tendresse sa vie simple et heureuse dans le Tennessee. Il évoque son mariage et sa compagne aux yeux bleus qui le comble. Ils vivent dans une petite cabane à la campagne, entourés de nature, avec des moments joyeux comme balancer sur un pneu ou passer du temps avec leurs parents. Leur vie est rythmée par les saisons, entre les récoltes de maïs et les projets pour la fête de la ville, tout en se remémorant le plaisir de partager des moments en famille. Le contexte de la chanson reflète une vie rurale authentique, ancrée dans des valeurs familiales et des plaisirs simples, tout en célébrant l'attachement à leur terre natale. C'est une poésie du quotidien où la joie se trouve dans les petites choses.
