|
It'll creep up on you like a kudzu vine |
|
Even miles above the Mason-Dixon line |
|
'Til one day you're craving hominy grits |
|
And scanning the jukebox for George Jones hits |
|
Drinkin' Jack Black tryin' to kick back |
|
'Til the condo's looking like a shotgun shack |
|
You'll be one of us no matter where you're at |
|
When it all goes south |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(You'll be drivin' around on a John Deere tractor) |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(Wearing baseball caps but they won't be backwards) |
|
Now it really don't matter what state you're in |
|
One day the south's gonna rise again |
|
There's a Wall Street wonderboy sittin' up north |
|
Throwing darts like a monkey at a stock report |
|
He's got two homes, car loans, in debt |
|
And his third divorce ain't even final yet |
|
Traded his MBA for a SUV |
|
On a backwoods road down in Tennessee |
|
'Cause man Manhattan ain't the place to be |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(With the live oak trees and the sweet magnolias) |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(Eatin' moon pies, drinking RC colas) |
|
Now it really don't matter what state you're in |
|
Someday the south's gonna rise again |
|
Vicksburg, Birmingham, Natchez |
|
And Savannah, Panama City |
|
Y'all sure look pretty in the sunshine |
|
Gettin' dixiefried |
|
Get yourself some rebel pride |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(Where the fog's as thick as Mississippi mud) |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(You'll be singing the blues 'cause it's in your blood) |
|
Now it really don't matter what state you're in |
|
One day the south's gonna rise again |
|
When it all goes south |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(Where the fog's as thick as Mississippi mud) |
|
When it all goes south |
|
(You'll be singing the blues 'cause it's in your blood)... |
