Tracks:
1. Touchdown Tennessee
2. Back Where I Come From
Touchdown Tennessee
With a voice you could hear all the way to Rocky Top
Play-by-play for 31 years it never stopped
We heard 20, 15, 10, and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see
Touchdown Tennessee
Quarterback roll right
It was a long throw downfield to Willie Gault
For a second no one knew if it was caught
Then we heard 20, 15, 10, and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see
Touchdown Tennessee
Your voice painted us a picture
Of all the losses and the wins
And it's so hard to imagine
A game without your voice again
Saying 20, 15, 10, and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see
Touchdown Tennessee
So thank you John
What a run it's been fun for us all
Oh the way our hearts pounded when you called
20, 15, 10, and 5
Your voice was our eyes and we could see
Touchdown Tennessee
So thank you John

Back Where I Come From
In the town where I was raised
the clock ticked and the cattle grazed
Time passed with amazing grace
back where I come from
You can lie on a river bank
Paint your name on a water tank
or miscount all the beers you drank
back where I come from
Back where I come from
Where I'll be when its said and done
I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
We learned in Sunday school,
who made the sun shine through
I know who made the moonshine too
back where I come from
Blue eyes on a Saturday night
tan legs in the broad daylight
TVs they were black and white
back where I come from
Back where I come from
Where I'll be when its said and done
I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
Some say it's a backward place
narrow minds on a narrow wage
But I make it a point to say
that's where I come from
Back where I come from
Where I'll be when its said and done
I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
That's where I come from
I'm an old Tennessean
Well I'm proud as anyone
That's where I come from
