Tennessee River Run - Darryl Worley

(Darryl Worley/Steve Leslie)

Worked all week, got it all done
Let's make a Tennessee River run

Hey everybody, I think the time is right
Let's get together down where the catfish bite
Cooped up all winter waitin' on a day like this
It's the way I feel when I'm rockin' on the water
Baby that I can't resist

BBQ grill, summertime jam
Just a mile above the Pickwick dam
Party on the water, whole lotta fun
Time to make a Tennessee River run

I'll get my bass boat, crank up your party barge
We'll drop these anchors out where the big boats are
Break out a cooler, pass out some ice cold beer
Look at all the people out here on the water
Man I can't believe we're here

Swingin' on a rope, gonna have a ball
Jumpin' off the Yellow Creek waterfall
Checking out the honeys baking in the sun
God bless a Tennessee River run

Doo-doo-n-dee-dee
Oh what a weekend, we've had some time to play
I should be leavin' tomorrow's a work week day
I just might call in, tell 'em that I can't get home
Does anybody else want to stay a little longer
Or am I gonna be alone?

Floatin' on a tube, gonna weigh a ton
Cajun sausage on a hot dog bun
BBQ grill, summertime jam
Just a mile above the Pickwick dam

Party on the water, whole lotta fun
Time to make a Tennessee River run

Doo-doo-n-dee-dee

Nothing like a Tennessee River run
I love a Tennessee River run
Whoop up a Tennessee River run
