They were looking for a moon shine still. They got really drunk, no reason to come down.
I've had to play that song many times in a couple of different bands. Felice and Boudleaux Bryant wrote some really good songs, especially for the Everly Brothers.

Because of the Moonshine. But it is not the official fight song for Tennessee Football. The actual fight song is "Down the Field"

I grew up on Rocky Top and attend UT....and we have always answered this question with the idea that nobody would want to come down from Rocky Top because the moonshine tastes so good and it's one of the most beautiful and wonderful parts of America !

It shows me that those politicians will use any perspective they could to income an benefit. it quite is quite variety of stupid for my area and made me chuckle slightly to be honest approximately it. i think she is attempting to declare she may be down slightly, yet she's coming returned reliable like Rocky did in his combat. i will in simple terms hear the Rocky music enjoying now as Hillary is popping out for the subsequent around. LOL

Actually they didn't come down because either they got really lost, or they were killed by the moonshine makers (seeing as how they didn't want to get caught because moonshine making is illegal).
