  • They beat us every damn year
    It's been a minute since we pulled out a win
    I loaded the truck down with beer
    Drove down to watch 'em do it again
    And they did so we went to the bar right after
    Met a girl with a houndstooth print of her chapter on her shirt
    And it turned into talkin' all night
    She came back with me cross the Vol' state line

    Guess the jokes on Alabama 'cause they lost big this time
    I got the number one pick, blonde hair, red lips
    Brought her over to the other side
    A little deep south Delta Gamma
    Done found a Smoky mountain man
    Yeah, she was raised Roll Tide 'til the day she died
    But ever since that night, she's been a Tennessee fan

    She likes riding on them windin' roads
    The smell of sweet pine in the air
    I took her 'bout as high as you could go, huh
    You can still see Tuscaloosa from there
    And all them girls back home say, "How could you love him?"
    All them boys probably hate me for takin' her from 'em
    Lord knows her mom and daddy's jaw would drop
    If they heard her singing every word of Rocky Top

    Guess the jokes on Alabama 'cause they lost big this time
    I got the number one pick, blonde hair, red lips
    Brought her over to the other side
    A little deep south Delta Gamma
    Done found a Smoky mountain man
    Yeah, she was raised Roll Tide 'til the day she died
    But ever since that night she's been a Tennessee fan

    Oh
    Yeah, it's alright, let's just call it even
    'Cause she's all mine
    And she ain't ever leaving
    And she's damn fine in orange every weekend
    From now on
    Yeah, she found home

    Looks like the jokes on Alabama 'cause they lost big this time
    I got the number one pick, blonde hair, red lips
    Brought her over to the other side
    A little deep south Delta Gamma
    Done found a Smoky mountain man
    Yeah, she was raised Roll Tide 'til the day she died
    But ever since that night she's been a Tennessee fan
    Oh, she's been a Tennessee fan Writer/s: Ashley Glenn Gorley, Mark L. Holman, Michael Hardy, Morgan Wallen
