Smoky Mountain Rain Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thumbed my way from LA back to Knoxville
I found out those bright lights ain't where I belong
From a phone booth in the rain, I called to tell her
I've had a change of dreams, I'm coming home
But tears filled my eyes
When I found out she was gone

[Chorus]
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
Keeps on falling
I keep on calling her name
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
I'll keep on searching
I can't go on hurting this way
She's somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain

[Verse 2]
I waved a diesel down outside a cafe
He said that he was going as far as Gatlinburg
I climbed up in the cab, all wet and cold and lonely
I wiped my eyes and told him about her
I've got to find her, can you make these big wheels burn?

[Chorus]
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
Keeps on falling
I keep on calling her name
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain) I'll keep on searching
I can't go on hurting this way
She's somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain
[Bridge]
I can't blame her for letting go
A woman needs someone warm to hold
I feel the rain running down my face
I'll find her no matter what it takes

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
Keeps on falling
I keep on calling (I keep on calling) calling her name (Her name)
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
I'll keep on searching
I can't go on hurting (Go on hurting) hurting this way (Hurting this way)
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
It keeps on falling
I keep on calling (I keep on calling) calling her name (Her name)
Smoky Mountain rain (Smoky Mountain rain)
I'll keep on searching
I can't go on hurting (Go on hurting) hurting this way (Hurting this way)
She's somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain
