The fog rolls in the morning
I can hardly find my way
Home to where the heart is

The words can't begin to say
Enough about the gentle way
You always take me in

Long and narrow winding road's
Got to take me home again


CHORUS
Go down, go down
Knoxville girl

With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
Knoxville girl

'Cause I know
You'll never be my bride


I met a little girl in Knoxville town
A town that I knew well
Feelin' good like I should

And to her love I felt
Time was long she lay there by my side
Held me close within her arms

And kept me statisfied

So on it goes and no one knows

Why heartache never ends
Above all that you will get
Exactly what it lends

Time has come to steal my love from me
In this pain I will remain
And sing this misery
