(in English)
Sweetness of Spring memories bring,
Of a place I long to be.
Land of Sunshine calls this old heart of mine,
Come back to Tennessee.
When it’s Iris time down in Tennessee,
I’ll be coming back to stay.
Where the mockingbird sings at the break of day,
A lilting love song gay.
Where the Iris grows,
Where the Harpeth flows,
That is where I long to be.
There’s a picture there that lives in memory,
When it’s Iris time in Tennessee.

A lilting love song gay.

Where the Harpeth flows,
That is where I long to be.
There’s a picture there that lives in memory,
When it’s Iris time in Tennessee.
Rocks and the rills deep tinted hills,
There’s no spot so dear to me,
Where’er I roam still it’s my Home Sweet Home,
My own, my Tennessee.
When it’s Iris time down in Tennessee,
I’ll be coming back to stay.
Where the mockingbird sings at the break of day,
A lilting love song gay.

Where the Harpeth flows,
That is where I long to be.
