Sweet Southern Comfort

Misty sunrise in my hometown Rows of cotton bout knee high Mrs. Baker down the dirt road Still got clothes out on the line Erwin Nichols there with Judge Lee Playin checkers at the gin When I dream about the southland This is where it all begins From Carolina down to Georgia Smell the Jasmine and Magnolia Sleepy sweet home Alabama Roll tide roll Muddy water, Misssissippi Blessed Graceland whispers to me Carry on, Carry on Sweet southern comfort, carry on Catchin' catfish on the river Chasin' fireflies by the creek Kissin' Debbie Williams' sister On the porch Homecomin' week With rusty cars and weepin' willows Keepin' watch out in the yard Just a snapshot of downhome Dixie Could be anywhere you are In Carolina or in Georgia Open arms are waitin' for ya Louisiana, Yellow Rose of San Antone Arkansas, Mississippi Old man river whispers to me Carry on, Carry on Sweet Southern Comfort, carry on As I sit here I'm surrounded By these priceless memories I don't have to think about it There's no place I'd rather be In Carolina or in Georgia Smell the Jasmine and Magnolia Sleepy sweet home Alabama Roll tide roll Muddy water, Misssissippi Blessed Graceland whispers to me Carry on, Carry on Sweet Southern Comfort Carry on, Carry on Sweet Southern Comfort, carry on
