Somewhere South

I think about blazing heat I think about small talk I think about the trash piling up in the back of a truck on cinder blocks I think about lawn chairs watermelon on a paper plate I think about tea in a pitcher on a porch that's drowning in sugar cane oh, I think I need to catch a plane Somewhere South where they open that smile, they smile that long so jaw falls out and where I can be me and get lost in the sea of a down home crowd oh, I gotta get back down Somewhere South I think about stars and bars I think about stubborn pride and fightin' over Fords and Chevys a war, a damn eagle, or a crimson tide I think about amazing grace I think about raising hell and walking that lines a bitch cuz ever mama has a switch in the Bible Belt oh, I think I need to find myself Somewhere South where they open that smile, they smile that long so jaw falls out and where I can be me and get lost in the sea of a down home crowd oh, I gotta get back down Somewhere South like kudzu on those pines my heart stays wrapped around my roots, my truth, my boots they miss they're stomping grounds think they wanna run right now Somewhere South I think about a pretty girl wearing my grandma's ring and I think about a baby boy carrying on my grandpa's name and I think I wanna plant that dream Somewhere South Somewhere South Somewhere South
