Ok...first...a lot of these songs mention cities or states, rather than schools. Using that criteria:

Copper Head Road - Steve Earle "He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load"

Tennessee Stud - Various Artists

Tennessee Waltz - Various Artists (my favorite being Sam Cooke)

Knoxville Girl - The Louvin Brothers

Daddy's Gone to Knoxville - Mark Knoffler

Rock N Roll Jesus - Kid Rock

1952 Vincent Black Lightning (Del McCoury cover)

I've Been Everywhere - Johnny Cash

When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back - Confederate Railroad

Ballad of Thunder Road - Jim & Jesse

Tennessee Jed - Grateful Dead

Tennessee River - Alabama

Tennessee - Carl Perkins

Biggest Fool in Tennessee - Eddy Arnold

Dallas - Alan Jackson

Tennessee Christmas - Amy Grant

T for Texas - Various

God Bless The USA - Lee Greenwood

Tennessee Plates - John Haitt

Leaving Tennessee - Robert Earl Keen

All My Ex's Live in Texas - George Strait

Bucket T - The Who

Who Wouldn't Want to be Me - Keith Urban

Smoky Mountain Rain - Ronnie Milsap



I quit...there are too many freaking mentions of Tennessee or Knoxville in songs to list them all, so I'll just stop there.
