Way Down South |
| I was born and raised on a little ole farm |
| Shotgun house down by the swamp |
| Work was hard and times were kinda rough |
| But we just kept on scuffling and hanging tough |
| The one thing in our lives that kept our spirits high |
| We could let the music out |
| And it’s alright baby we boogie way down south |
| Saturday morning everybody goes into town |
| Hugging and laughing and talking till the sun goes down |
| Sit out on the porch late in the night |
| Break out the guitar baby it’s feeling right |
| Backbeat on the knee hit you down in your feet |
| Make you want to jump and shout |
| It’s alright baby you boogie way down south |
| Stomp stomp gonna rack the swamp |
| Stomp stomp gonna rock the swamp |
| Just keep it cool you got to be loose |
| It can mean anything that you want it to just boogie |
| We all moved off and got big city ways |
| But I still think about those laid back days |
| Sometimes it hits me in a dream |
| And I can almost taste that homemade ice cream |
| Hot delta nights everybody’s feeling right |
| I still got to let it out |
| And it’s so cool baby the boogie way down south |
