South

Three leagues down

The soft side of where you left my

Gold rose crown

You broke down and left me with a

Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

Three weeks down

I drown myself in whiskey

Came back 'round and drowned out

You left me with a

Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Streetlights talk the same way my mother told me

I walk the same way my father told me

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Wise men talk the same way my mother told me

I walk the same way my father told me

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Ooh, hoo, ooh

Go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

You go down south, south

Streetlights talk the same way my mother told me

I walk the same way my father told me

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Wise men talk the same way my mother told me

I walk the same way my father told me

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
