"Smoky Mountain DNA" lyrics - DOLLY PARTON & FAMILY

I don't need scientific terminology to tell me where I'm from, who I am, or gonna be
I don't need a chart, a kit, nor any other way to claim my Smoky Mountain DNA
Well, I'm proud to be a neighbor, and I'm glad to be a friend
And I want to be respected in the town that I live in
I'm always glad to lend an ear to things they have to say
It's in my Smoky Mountain DNA

[Chorus:]
Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains), Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains)
Where the tall trees grow, the rivers flow, the hills have a soft blue haze
Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains), Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains)
Where the sassafras and the ginseng grows, breathing in that sweet blue smoke
It's in my blood, it's in my soul, it's in my DNA

[Chorus:]
I don't need someone to tell me (Tell me), what I already know (Know)
I know my true identity (Tell me), I am a wild mountain rose
Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains), Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains)
Where the tall trees grow, the rivers flow, the hills have a soft blue haze
Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains), Smoky Mountains (Smoky Mountains)
Where the sassafras and the ginseng grows, breathing in that sweet blue smoke
It's in my blood, it's in my soul, it's in my DNA

[Outro:]
It's in my blood, it's in my soul, in my Smoky (Smoky Mountain DNA)
In my Smoky, in my Smoky Mountain DNA (DNA)
