So Miss Sarah sent this over FOREVER ago, and for some reason I didn't see if for some reason. She is talking about the Tennessee Volunteers. Hey everyone! I'm Sarah from Venus Trapped in Mars. There are few things in this world that get me more excited than college Tennessee football season. The smell of smokey dogs on tailgate grills, mimosas for noon time kickoffs, snagging 50 yard-line seats last minute from a scalper, losing your voice from screaming as your running back tip toes through the end zone to win the game late in the fourth quarter... ok well I haven't had the luxury of seeing that last one in a few years.Which leads me to the point of this post.I'm a TENNESSEE VOLUNTEER. #GBO #GOVOLS #VFL Although winning has not been at the top of our priority list in the past few years, this year, fingers crossed, should change all of that! We have a new coach and since the season hasn't started, and the losing depression hasn't set in, I can still make statements like, "This is our year"!! My favorite thing about the University of Tennessee is screaming, chanting and singing with the Pride of the Southland marching band the best fight song in all the land....ROCKY TOP. I bet if you asked everyone in the SEC what the most annoying fight song is, they would say Rocky Top. They say annoying, I say heavenly music to my ears. As a student, you are required to know every word to Rocky Top. There is a test. Am I kidding, well, I'll let you decide.
Today, I'm here to share the lyrics to Rocky Top along with some of my favorite pictures and memories from the University of Tennessee baby! I said it's great to be a Tennessee Vol! Rocky Top -- as sung and celebrated by Venus Trapped in MarsWish that I was on ole Rocky Top, down in the Tennessee hills.Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky TopAin't no telephone BillsOnce there was a girl on Rocky TopHalf bear the other half cat.Wild as a mink, but sweet as soda popI still dream about thatRocky top you'll always be, home sweet home to me.Good ole Rocky Top (Whoo!)Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top TennesseeOnce two starngers climbed ole Rocky TopLookin for a moonshine stillStrangers ain't come down from Rocky TopReckon they never willCorn won't grow at all on Rocky Top,Dirt's too rocky by far.That's why all the folks on Rocky Top Get their corn from a jar.Rocky top, you'll always beHome sweet home to me.Good ole Rocky top (WHOO!)Rocky top Tennessee, Rocky top TennesseeNow I've had years of cramped up city life, Trapped like a duck in a pen.Now all I know is it's a pity life Can't be simple againRocky top you'll always be
Home sweet home to me!
Good ole Rocky Top (WHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee
