Dear Hearts And Gentle People - Red Foley

There’s a place I’d like to be and it’s back in Tennessee

Where your friendly neighbors smile and say hello

It’s a pleasure and a treat to me enter down the street

That’s why I want the whole wide world to know.

I love those dear hearts and gentle people

Who live in my home town

Because those dear hearts and gentle people

Will never ever let you down.

They read the good book from Friday till Monday

That’s how the weekend goes

I’ve got a dream house I’ll build there one day

With picket fence and rambling rose.

I feel so welcome each time that I return

That my happy heart keeps laughing like a clown

I love those dear hearts and gentle people

Who live and love in my hometown.

I feel so welcome each time that I return

That my happy heart keeps laughing like a clown

I love those dear hearts and gentle people

Who live and love in my hometown…
