| I followed you into the blue and north into the cold
|
| You led me off my land, you led me far from home
|
| I tried to be the kind of girl who never needed share
|
| I gave you all my light and I got naught to show for it
|
| I’m going back South
|
| Down to Carolina
|
| I’m gonna plant myself
|
| Under a magnolia
|
| I’m gonna let that dirt
|
| Do its work
|
| I’m gonna plant myself
|
| Under a magnolia, a magnolia
|
| Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia
|
| I may leave and buy a move I need my feet alone
|
| Didn’t have a dime to ride the blinds and lead me back to home
|
| I asked the conductor, «Sir, won’t you let me ride?»
|
| He said, «Baby girl, this ain’t my world, train ain’t nothing of mine»
|
| I’m going back South
|
| Down to Carolina
|
| I’m gonna plant myself
|
| Under a magnolia
|
| I’m gonna lt that dirt
|
| Do its work
|
| I’m gonna plant myself
|
| Under a magnolia, a magnolia
|
| Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia
|
| Ooh, it’s something in th air tonight, something in the air tonight
|
| Ooh, it’s something in the air tonight, something in the air tonight
|
| Ooh, it’s something in the air tonight, something in the air tonight
|
| I’m going back South
|
| Down to Carolina
|
| I’m gonna plant myself
|
| Under a magnolia
|
| I’m gonna let that dirt
|
| Do its work
|
| I’m gonna plant myself
|
| Under a magnolia, a magnolia
|
| Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia |
