Intro
Verse 1
Just A Farm Boy From Wisconsin
Where The Winters Last Too Long
Snow Would Fall Till April
And The Cold Cut To The Bone
Daddy Moved Us Out To California
Chasing Dreams Beneath The Sun
Life Looked Good From Where I Stood
But My Road Had Just Begun
Verse 2
Then The Army Called And Off I Went
Far Away From Where I’d Been
Germany And Then To Texas
Still I Didn’t Fit In
So I Drifted Back To California
Still Trying To Find My Way
But The City Kept On Wearing Me Down
And My Peace Slipped Away
Chorus
I Was Looking For A Home
Looking For Some Peace Of Mind
Looking For A Place To Rest
That I Just Could Not Find
Then I Found Old Rocky Top
Where The Smoky Mountains Rise
And Knoxville Wrapped Around My Heart
Like It Knew Me All This Time
Verse 3
I Crossed The Country Searching
But I Couldn’t Find The Way
To The Place That Held The Secret
That Would Make Me Want To Stay
I Tried So Many Other Places
Tried To Build Myself A Home
But It Didn't Matter Where I Went
I Still Felt All Alone
Chorus
I Was Looking For A Home
Looking For Some Peace Of Mind
Looking For A Place To Rest
That I Just Could Not Find
Then I Found Old Rocky Top
Where The Smoky Mountains Rise
And Knoxville Wrapped Around My Heart
Like It Knew Me All This Time
Bridge
Now The Mornings Come In Slowly
And The Evenings Feel Just Right
There’s A Calm Up In These Mountains
That Helps Me Sleep At Night
After All The Roads I Traveled
All The Places I Have Seen
I Found Out Home Was Waiting
Here In Tennessee
Chorus
Yeah I Found Myself A Home
Found A Little Peace Of Mind
Found A Place To Rest My Soul
That Was So Hard To Find
Now I Wake On Old Rocky Top
Where The Smoky Mountains Rise
And Knoxville Wrapped Around My Heart
Like It Knew Me All This Time
