The Steel Woods – Southern Accents lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a southern accent
Where I come from
The young'uns call it country
And the yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything gets done
With a southern accent
Where I come from

[Verse 2]
Now that drunk tank in Atlanta
Was just a motel room to me
I think I might go work Orlando
If the orange groves don't freeze
I got my own way of working
But everything is run
With a southern accent
Where I come from

[Bridge]
For just a minute there, I was dreaming
For just a minute it was all so real
For just a minute she was standing there with me

[Verse 3]
There's a dream that I keep having
Where my mama comes to me
And kneels down by the window
And says a prayer for me
I got my own way of praying
But every prayer's begun
With a southern accent
Where I come from

[Outro]
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything gets done
With a southern accent
Where I come from
