[Verse]
Let?s make the Tennessee River CRun.G  C  
Hey everybody, I think the time is Gright
Let?s get together, down where the catfish Cbite
Cooped up all winter, waitin? on a day like Fthis
It?s the Gway I feel when I?m rockin? on the water
Baby that I can?t resist.
CBarbecue grill, summer time jam
Just about a mile above the GPickwick CDam
Party on the water, whole lotta fun
Time to make the Tennessee GRiver CRun.G  C  
CI?ll get my bass boat, crank up your party Gbarge
We?ll drop these anchors, out where the big boats Care
Break out a cooler, pass out some ice cold Fbeer
GLook at all the people out here on the water
Man I can?t believe we?re here.
CSwingin? on a rope, gonna have a ball
Jumpin? off the Yellow Creek GWaterfCall
Checkin? out the hunnies, bakin? in the sun
God bless the Tennessee GRiver CRun.G  C  
[Instrumental]
C G C F G
[Bridge]
CDo dee ?n do dee
Do dee ?n do
Do dee ?n do dee
Do dee Gdoodle Cdo.
COh what a weekend we?ve had some time to Gplay
I should be leavin?, tomorrow?s a work week Cday
I just might call in, tell them that I can?t get Fhome
Does Ganybody else wanna stay a little longer?
Or am I gonna be alone?
CFloatin? on a tube, gonna weigh a ton
Cajun sausage on a Ghot dog Cbun.G  C  
CBarbecue grill, summer time jam
Just about a mile above the GPickwick CDam
Party on the water, whole lotta fun
Gotta have a Tennessee GRiver CRun.G  C

CDo dee ?n do dee
Do dee ?n do
Do dee ?n do dee
Do dee Gdoodle Cdo.
[Outro]

I love the Tennessee GRiver CRun
Woke up the Tennessee River CRun.G  C
