"My Tennessee Mountain Home" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Dolly Parton.
Using imagery from her rural childhood in Tennessee (holding hands on a porch swing, enjoying nature, walking home from church), the song served as the centerpiece of her 1973 concept album My Tennessee Mountain Home.
[3] Dolly Parton herself re-recorded the song on her 1994 live album Heartsongs.
A cover version named "Ett bättre liv" (A Better Life) was recorded in Swedish by Lasse Stefanz and a children's choir.
The song appears on the 1986 album Den lilla klockan, with lyrics by the pseudonym "Mackan".
