"Southern Voice" lyrics.

 

Hank Williams sang it

 

Number 3 drove it

 

Chuck Berry twanged it

 

Will Faulkner wrote it

 

Aretha Franklin souled it

 

Dolly Parton graced it

 

Rosa Parks rode it

 

Scarlett O chased it

 

Smooth as the hickory wind

 

That blows from Memphis

 

Down to Apalachicola

 

It's, "Hi y'all, did ya eat, well?"

 

Come on in child

 

Sure glad to know ya

 

Don't let this old gold cross

 

And this Allman Brothers t-shirt throw ya

 

It's cicadas making noise

 

With a southern voice

 

Hank Aaron smacked it

 

Michael Jordan dunked it

 

Pocahontas tracked it

 

Jack Daniels drunk it

 

Tom Petty rocked it

 

Dr. King paved it

 

Bear Bryant won it

 

Billy Graham saved it

 

Smooth as the hickory wind

 

That blows from Memphis

 

Down to Apalachicola

 

It's, "Hi y'all, did ya eat, well?"

 

Come on in

 

I'm sure glad to know ya

 

Don't let this old gold cross

 

And this Crimson Tide t-shirt throw ya

 

It's cicadas making noise

 

With a southern voice

 

Jesus is my friend

 

America is my home

 

Sweet iced tea and Jerry Lee

 

Daytona Beach

 

That's what gets to me

 

I can feel it in my bones

 

Smooth as the hickory wind

 

That blows from Memphis

 

Down to Apalachicola

 

It's, "Hi y'all, did ya eat, well?"

 

Come on in child

 

I'm sure glad to know ya

 

Don't let this old gold cross

 

And this Charlie Daniels t-shirt throw ya

 

We're just boys making noise

 

With a southern voice

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Southern Voice

 

I got a southern voice

 

A southern voice
