DELIVER ME TO TENNESSEE
Bradley / Hughes / Smith

as rec by Anita O'Day w Gene Krupa & his Orch  
April 2nd 1942 Chicago


Oh deliver me, mm-mm, to Tennessee, mmmm,
Where my sweet man is waitin' for me in the dawn.
Deliver me, mm-mm, to Tennessee, mmmm,
Oh, you lnow I cry becauise my lonely heart is full.

Magnolia blossoms bloomin' and a-fallin' on the ground
Mean so much more to me when he's around;
The honeysuckle vine is a goiod old summertime,
Is just another "we should be together!".

Oh hear my plea
On bended knee,
Deliver me to Tennessee!
And I'll spend my days close to him for evermore!

And I'll spend my days close to him for evermore!
