Twilight in the South

Old man on a tractor with his headlights on

Tryin' to cut the pasture before the daylight's gone

Woman in the kitchen, you can hear her sing

Smell that fryin' chicken through the window screen

You can smell that fryin' chicken through the screen

Sun's goin' down

Lightnin' bugs are out

There's just somethin' about

Twilight in the South

You can see the Whitetail peekin' through the tall pine trees

Smell that honeysuckle in the early evening breeze

Me, I've been out workin' in the sun all day

So I'm hitchin' up the jon boat to that old Chevrolet

I'm gonna stop and grab a six-pack on the way

Windows are down

Junebugs are out

There's just somethin' about

Twilight in the South

Way down around where Tennessee turns into Alabama

When summer days turn into summer nights

Where there's a huntin' hole a mile below that Chickamauga Dam

Where I guarantee the fish are gonna bite

And I'll guarantee that's where I'll be tonight, yeah

Way down around where Tennessee turns into Alabama

When summer days turn into summer nights

If you're ever down around this way

This time of year, this time of day

You'll have a good idea of what Heaven's light

When that sun's goin' down

Lightnin' bugs are out

There's just somethin' about

Twilight in the South

Yeah, there's just somethin' about

Twilight in the South
