There's a southern accent, where i come from |
|
The young'uns call it country |
|
The yankees call it dumb |
|
I got my own way of talkin' |
|
But everything is done, with a southern accent |
|
Where i come from |
|
Now that drunk tank in atlanta's |
|
Just a motel room to me |
|
Think i might go work orlando |
|
If them orange groves don't freeze |
|
I got my own way of workin' |
|
But everything is run, with a southern accent |
|
Where i come from |
|
For just a minute there i was dreaming |
|
For just a minute it was all so real |
|
For just a minute she was standing there, with me |
|
There's a dream i keep having |
|
Where my mama comes to me |
|
And kneels down over by the window |
|
And says a prayer for me |
|
I got my own way of prayin' |
|
But everyone's begun |
|
With a sou thern accent |
|
Where i come from |
|
I got my own way of livin' |
|
But everything gets done |
|
With a southern accent |
|
Where i come from |
