Lyrics

Sweet Southern Home

Sweet southern home underneath the big oak tree.
Mississippi moon, sweetened sun tea.
Fields of cotton and fireflies blow beneath the breeze
My sweet southern home is callin? for me.

I hear the whipperwheel singin? out his lonesome song.
Telling me to come home, I?ve been gone for way too long
Dusty roads and dandelions, clear blue southern skies.
Bullfrogs and soft rain, homemade apple pies.

I?m comin? home tonight
Lead my way my sweet southern moonlight
Through the winding roads and rows of trees.
My windows down I can taste the misty breeze.

Well I?m sitting outside watching days go on by.
There ain?t no reason to care about the time
The sun will come up and the sun will go on down
Everything I need is here in my hometown

There children in the park slippin? down the slipper slide.
The woman of my dreams is right here by my side.
Everything is wonderful, I think I?ll stay right where I am.
South of the Mason Dixie line, in my southern land.
