Lyrics
Southern Love
John Johnson
She left home first time in the sky
Don't worry mama please don't cry
Another small town girl
Just chasing a dream
The big city the camera's the lights
Ain't as pretty as the hot southern nights
O how I miss the taste of my mama's sweet tea
Sometimes I want to go back, back to the place
where love is still at
people want to know you and
I can breathe
When these city nights get tough
Pour a little southern love
In your life
He left town in a pickup truck
Needed money he was down
On his luck
He took a job in the city
He can send home his pay
He's got a wife and some kids
Back home
And they miss him cause he's
Never at home
Making money in the city
Working 10 hours a day
Sometimes I want to go back, back to the place
where love is still at
people want to know you and
I can breathe
When these city nights get tough
Pour a little southern love
In your life
Pour a little southern 6x
Take me home
Sometimes I want to go back, back to the place
where love is still at
people want to know you and
I can breathe
When these city nights get tough
Pour a little southern love
In your life
Pour a little southern 8x
In your life
