Doug Sahm Tennessee Blues written by Bobby Charles Doug Sahm vocal/guitar Charlie Owens steel guitar Dr John piano Augie Meyer organ Jack Barber bass George Rains drums Flacco Jimenez accordion David Fathead Newman tenor sax Wayne Jackson trumpet Neal Rosegarden flugelhorn If I had my way I'd leave here today and move in a hurry I know I feel loose I Know I could lose these Tennessee Blues Find me a spot on some mountain top With lakes all around me Vallies and streams birds in the trees Lakes that surround me A place I feel loose A place I could lose these Tennessee Blues A place to forget all my regrets And keep just the good times A place I could sleep with nothing but peace And Feel free at all times I know I feel loose Someplace I could lose these Tennessee Blues SOLO Find me a spot on some mountain top With lakes all around me With vallies and streams and birds in the trees And lakes that surround me A place I feel loose A place I could lose these Tennessee Blues Doug Sahm The Sir Douglas Band "Texas Tornado" Atlantic Records 1973 Street People Songs(ASCAP)
