Lyrics

There's a southern accent
Where I come from
The younging's call it country
And the Yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything gets done
With a southern accent
Where I come from
Now that drunk tank in Atlanta
Was just a motel room to me
I think I might go work Orlando
If the 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, yeah
There's a dream that I keep having
Where my mama comes to me
And kneels down by the window
And says a prayer for me
I got my own way of prayin'
But every prayer's begun
With a southern accent
Where I come from
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything gets done
With a southern accent
Where I come from
