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 Gets Done, With A Southern Accent
Where I Come From

Now That Drunk Tank In Atlanta's
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
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
