Southern Music

Hank Williams sang it, Number 3 drove it

Chuck Berry twanged it, Will Faulkner wrote it

Aretha Franklin sold it, Dolly Parton graced it

Rosa Parks rode it, Scarlett O. chased it

Smooth as the hickory wind

That blows from Memphis down to Apalachicola

It's, "Hi y'all, did ya eat well?

Come on in, I'm sure glad to know ya"

Don't let this old gold cross

And this Allman Brothers t-shirt throw ya

It's cicadas making noise

With the Southern voice

Hank Aaron smacked it, Michael Jordan dunked it

Pocahontas tracked it, Jack Daniels drunk it

Tom Petty rocked it, Dr. King paved it

Bear Bryant won it, Billy Graham saved it

Smooth as the hickory wind

That blows from Memphis down to Apalachicola

It's, 'Hi y'all, did ya eat well?

Come on in, I'm sure glad to know ya"

Don't let this old gold cross

And this Crimson Tide t-shirt throw ya

It's cicadas making noise

With the Southern voice

Jesus is my friend, America is my home

Sweet iced tea and Jerry Lee

Daytona Beach, that's what gets to me

I can feel it in my bones

Smooth as the hickory wind

That blows from Memphis down to Apalachicola

It's, 'Hi y'all, did ya eat well?

Come on in, I'm sure glad to know ya"

Don't let this old gold cross

And this Charlie Daniels t-shirt throw ya

We're just boys making noise

With the Southern voice, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Southern voice

I got a Southern voice

Southern voice
