| From ClassBrain.com TN State Symbols The Tennessee SaluteState Bicentennial March Words and music by "Pek" Gunn © Richard M. "Pek" Gunn Adopted March 13th, 1975 by the 89th General Assembly Tennessee, Oh How I love you with your fertile rolling plain Tennessee your lakes are playgrounds where the water skiers sway Purple tinted hills and mountains Touring over fields of grain To the speeding boats that pull them Through the misty silvery spray Smoke and steam from busy factories Rising upward in the air Trout and brim and bass and croppie Finest in the U.S.A. From the smoky mountains to Mississippi Happiness is everywhere When you go a-fishin’ Catch instead of wishing’ H’rah for good ole Tennessee Oh how I love you There is none that is above you You are on the move Tennessee is on the double With a minimum of trouble No one can do prove Tennessee is on good footing Industy is really putting Hard times on the run Everything that’s done and said puts Good ole Tennessee ahead We’ll all join in the fun
