Southern Accents

There's a southern accent, where I come from

The young uns call it country the Yankees call it dumb

I got my own way of talkin'

But everything is done, with a southern accent, where I come fromNow that drunk tank in Atlanta was just a motel room to me

I think I might go work Orlando if them orange groves don't freeze

I've got my own way of workin'

But everything is run, with a southern accent, where I come fromFor just a minute there I was dreamin'

For just a minute it was all so real

For just a minute she was standin' there, with meThere's a dream that I keep havin' where my mama comes to me

And she kneels down over by the window and says a prayer for me

I got my own way of prayin'

And everyone's begun with a southern accent, where I come from
