Last month I left my home in Fort Pierce, Florida
Headed north to the hills of Tennessee
How I miss the old home place way down yonder

The memories that I'm feelin' torture me

[Chorus]


Fort Pierce, you're always on my mind
Just troubling me as I head on down the line

How I wish that I could relive the good ole times
Fort Pierce, you're always on my mind


My woman in Fort Pierce got drunk and left me
She was always the cheatin', hurtin' kind
I didn't know that I could do to try and please her

I reckon she'll be gone for a long, long time

[Chorus]


Fort Pierce, you're always on my mind
Just troubling me as I head on down the line

How I wish that I could relive the good ole times
Fort Pierce, you're always on my mind


Johnson City ain't no place for the winter
Neither is Jackson, Tennessee
I've traveled down these roads for days un-numbered

Just thinkin' 'bout that place where I should be

[Chorus]


Fort Pierce, you're always on my mind
Just troubling me as I head on down the line

How I wish that I could relive the good ole times
Fort Pierce, you're always on my mind
