| Maybe he’s in Texas, maybe this town
|
| Maybe Oklahoma plowin' up some ground
|
| Southern Carolina, somewhere on the coast
|
| Maybe Alabama drivin' through Montgomery
|
| Right now, there’s somethin' 'bout a boy from the South.
|
| Maybe he’s in Florida, somewhere in the pines
|
| Maybe on the delta throwin' out a line
|
| Maybe he’s in Georgia, starin' at the stars
|
| Maybe Tennessee pickin' on a guitar
|
| Right now, there’s somethin' 'bout a boy from the south
|
| Yea, the first time I felt it I was only 16,
|
| And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree.
|
| Said «Goodnight darlin,"with a sweet southern drawl.
|
| Man, I think I might just have to love them all —
|
| The boys from the South.
|
| Yeah, yeah, yeah
|
| Maybe in Kentucky, workin' in the mines
|
| Maybe down in Little Rock, just to pass the time
|
| Maybe he’s somewhere in New Orleans,
|
| Livin' it up in the Big Easy
|
| Right now, there’s somethin' 'bout a boy from the South
|
| Yea, the first time I felt it I was only 16,
|
| And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree.
|
| Said «Goodnight darlin,"with a sweet southern drawl.
|
| Man, I think I might just have to love them all —
|
| The boys from the South
|
| Yeah, yeah, yeah
|
| Maybe he’s in Texas, maybe this town.
|
| My boys from the South
|
| Ooh, ooh, ooh
|
| Ooh, ooh, ooh
|
| Ooh, ooh, ooh
|
| Oh yeah, yeah! |
