“Deep South” Lyrics
You say you’re from the planet where the tea ain’t sweet
You’ve never seen a chicken that’s fried
You’ve never been up in a big ol’ live oak tree
You’ve never heard of Charley Pride
I’m feeling sorry for you cause you’ve been missing out
You made me realise how good my life is
Thank the Lord I’m from the deep south
Let me take you there
Screamin’ down a back road like we don’t care
I’m from the deep south
We ain’t meaning no harm
Me and my baby making out in the barn
We ain’t got much of nothing but we sure is proud
Y’all better listen up, you heard it straight from my mouth
I’m from the deep south
I’m from the deep south
Down in the land of cotton in a front porch swing
That’s where mama likes to shuck the corn
And I’ll sit out there with her and sing her a tune
Playin’ on my old guitar
I’m in the church house every Sunday in the same old pew
After that we’ll go and eat my favorite barbeque
I’m from the deep south
Let me take you there
Screamin’ down a back road like we don’t care
I’m from the deep south
We ain’t meaning no harm
Me and my baby making out in the barn
We ain’t got much of nothing but we sure is proud
Y’all better listen up, you heard it straight from my mouth
I’m from the deep south
Yeah, I’m from the deep south
Yeah
I’ll get all dressed up and we’ll go out on the town
High steppin’ in my cowboy boots
We’ll come back to the country and kick it back
Sit and talk about my roots
There’s been seven generations living life on this land
I thank my lucky stars that I was born a southern man
I’m from the deep south
Let me take you there
Screamin’ down a back road like we don’t care
I’m from the deep south
We ain’t meaning no harm
Me and my baby making out in the barn
We ain’t got much of nothing but we sure is proud
Y’all better listen up, you heard it straight from my mouth
I’m from the deep south
Yeah, I’m from the deep south
I’m from the deep south
