Lyrics Goodnight Tennessee - Cold War Kids
Goodnight
Tennessee,
go
to
sleep
Tomorrow
it's
back
to
the
city
for
me
How
lost
can
you
be
when
fourteenth
street
Is
guiding
me
home
to
a
white
sand
beach
Goodnight
Tennessee,
the
talking
trees
Hover
above
while
the
red
stars
weep
The
season
was
brief,
wrapped
in
fleece
My
roots
they
were
weak
They
could
not
grow
deep
I
should
have
been
born
in
Brooklyn
But
I
missed
my
chance,
I
still
got
Berlin
I
should
have
been
born
free
back
then
I
was
a
late
bloomin'
kid
at
the
orange
curtain
Goodnight
Tennessee,
happy
deportee
It
is
hot,
it
is
cold,
it
is
bitter,
it
is
sweet
But
now
I
envy
you
and
you
envy
me
A
toast
to
us
both,
may
the
grass
stay
green
I
can't
miss
a
thing,
freeze
on
three
Every
story
it
is
told
by
the
luck
and
key
I
can't
miss
a
thing,
freeze
on
three
All
my
souvenirs
have
become
antiques
Hong
Kong,
Oakland,
where
have
you
been?
I'd
give
all
of
my
memories
to
see
you
again
Hong
Kong,
Oakland,
where
have
you
been?
I'd
give
all
of
my
memories
to
see
you
again
Will
you
take
care
of
me?
Will
you
take
care
of
me?
While
I
am
away
While
I
am
away
Every
old
friend
I
see
I
will
kiss
on
the
cheek
I
will
jump
up
and
down
like
the
wars
endin'
Goodnight
Tennessee,
go
to
sleep
Tomorrow
it's
back
to
the
city
for
me
Hong
Kong,
Oakland,
where
have
you
been?
I'd
give
all
of
my
memories
to
see
you
again
Hong
Kong,
Oakland,
where
have
you
been?
I'd
give
all
of
my
memories
but
nothing's
the
same
Hong
Kong,
Oakland,
where
have
you
been?
I'd
give
all
of
my
memories
to
see
you
again
Hong
Kong,
Oakland,
where
have
you
been?
I'd
give
all
of
my
memories
but
nothing's
the
same
Goodnight
Tennessee,
yeah
Goodnight
Tennessee
Goodnight
Tennessee
Go
to
sleep
Goodnight
Tennessee
