The fog rolls in the morn-ing and I can hard-ly find m-y way along to where the heart is words can't be-gin to s-a-y e-nough a-bout the gen-tle way you al-ways take m-e in that long and nar-row one-way road's got to take me ho-me a-ga-in
Go down go down to
Knox-ville girl
with that dark and rov-in' eye
Go down, go down to
Knox-ville girl
'cause I know
you'll ne-ver be my bride
I met a lit-tle girl in Knox-ville County
I'-d known her well
Feel-in' good like I should
And to her love I fe-e-ell
Time was long she lay there by my side
Held me close with-in her arms
And kept me sat-is-fied
Go down go down to
Knox-ville girl
with that dark and rov-in' eye
Go down, go down to
Knox-ville girl
'cause I know
you'll ne-ver be my bride
Go down go down to
Knox-ville girl
with that dark and rov-in' eye
Go down, go down to
Knox-ville girl
'cause I know
you'll ne-ver be my bride
So on it goes and no one knows
Why heart-ache nev-er ends
A-bove all that you will get ex-actly what it le-en-d-s
Time has come to steal my love a-way
In this pain I will re-main
And sing this mi-se-ry
Go down go down to
Knox-ville girl
with that dark and rov-in' eye
Go down, go down to
Knox-ville girl
'cause I know
you'll ne-ver be my bride
wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo ye ha!
