about

Written by Joss Hollingworth

lyrics

Opportunity and English pleasantries
They all pass me by
I know you’ll hate me, just for being me
But I wanna be in Tennessee

I dream of Tennessee
Me and Nashville are like
George and Tammy
Nudie suits and knee-high boots
In my dreams of Tennessee

I’m proud to be, with no uncertainty
The first homo hillbilly
A shotgun wedding and honky-tonk bedding
You’ll learn to love me Tennessee

I dream of Tennessee
Chick-fil-a and the Grand Ol' Opry
I wanna wrap my arms around Waylon and Willie
And fool around with shakin’ Jerry Lee

I dream of Tennessee
Me and Nashville are like
George and Tammy
You be my dollar bill and I’ll be your whippoorwill
I can’t fly, I just cry for Tennessee

The Doubtfires are a duo from Nottingham, made up of Oliver Cobbin and Joss Hollingworth. We both play a variety of instruments, and self-produce all of our own music.

We've known each other since the age of 8 and have grown up playing music together. We've recorded songs here and there over the years but it wasn't until 2020 that we actually attempted a full album.
