Southern Roots

(альбом: Stranger Things Have Happened - 1989)

Now when living in the fast lane
Starts to get the best of me
You know, it does me good just to go back home
Sit in the shades of a magnolia tree

Cause I've got deep southern roots
Yes, I've got deep southern roots
You better believe her

Now I love those New York women
And I could live there for a while
But when it gets down to it, I'll take a Carolina girl
And 'Sweet Home Alabama' on my radio dial!

Cause I've got deep southern roots
Yes, I've got deep southern roots
And there ain't a thing that I can't do
Cause they're in my soul, those deep down ol' southern roots

Now way down in Savannah
They say 'yes sir' and 'yes ma'am'
You know, that's still true up in Louisville
Down in Baton Rouge and up in Birmingham!

We all've got deep southern roots
Yes, we've got deep southern roots
And there ain't a thing that we can't do
Cause they're in our soul, those deep down
Deep southern roots!
Yes, we've got deep southern roots!
And there ain't a thing that we can't do
Cause they're in our soul, those deep down
Deep southern roots!
Yes, we've got deep southern roots!
I'm talking 'bout deep southern roots
