Album:

Southern accents

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 southern accent where I come from


 I got my own way of livin' but everything gets done
 With a southern accent where I come from
