Lyrics Romance in the South - Frank Foster

Romance in the South

Wild young Cowboy runnin rigs and farmin land
When he meet her at the armory dance
Dark skin and beautiful had a smile that drove him wild
Daddy been lovin mama since fore I was a child
And that’s a romance in the south
Had a few older brothers one blood couple wasn’t even kin
Lord what I wouldn’t give to be young again
Barefoot in that bottom nothin more than just hangin out
They taught me what bein cool was all about
And that’s a romance in the south
So many stories’s to be told
So many chaliced hands to hold
When the lord answers prayers we shout out
Thank you Lord we love ya
Ya that’s another romance in the south
She had eyes like diamonds had a kiss like home-made wine
Little does of her and I was as high as the Caroline’s
We were young and crazy bound by wild desire
She could set a queen city night on fire
And that’s a romance in the south
So many stories to be told
I got me a hand to hold
Another answered pray and I shot out
Thank you Lord I love ya
Ya that’s another romance in the south
