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 from
Now that drunk tank in Atlanta is just a motel room to me
Think I might go work Orlando
If them orange groves don’t freeze
I got my own way of workin' but everything is run
With a southern accent where I come from
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
There’s a dream I keep having where my mama comes to me
And kneels down over by the window and says a prayer for me
I got my own way of prayin' but everyone’s begun
With a southern accent where I come from
I got my own way of livin' but everything gets done
With a southern accent where I come from
I love TP and the Heartbreakers and this collaboration is outstanding. I am a Southern California kid (well 61 years old) and this brings tears to my eyes.
