Down on the South

Nothing like that Whip-poor-will song Singing to the Lord, like its her last day on, this earth Buncha highschool kids in a fresh cut field And a big orange ball melting into the hills Livin' life for all its worth Didn't know what we had till it was gone Just laughing and loving Looking for something, we couldn't find out there on our own And Oooohhhh, I miss those days Moonshine Dancing, taking chances Lighting fires and sparking those flames And Oooohhhh, when I think about it now I'd go back there forever if I could somehow Cause I swear the world stops spinning for a minute When the sun goes down on the south We'd lay out there in the bed of my truck Praying to God it wouldn't come back up With her hand inside of mine But we found out it doesn't work like that Cause the next thing you know, you're left looking back On what you thought you'd never leave behind Didn't know what we had till it was gone Just laughing and loving Looking for something, we couldn't find out there on our own And Oooohhhh, I miss those days Moonshine Dancing, taking chances Lighting fires and sparking those flames And Oooohhhh, when I think about it now I'd go back there forever if I could somehow Cause I swear the world stops spinning for a minute When the sun goes down on the south And now and again, I find an auburn sky Drop a tailgate and drink about those times And my whole world stands still I know I can't get it back, and I never will And Oooohhhh, I miss those days Moonshine Dancing, taking chances Lighting fires and sparking those flames And Oooohhhh, when I think about it now I'd go back there forever if I could somehow Cause I swear the world stops spinning for a minute When the sun goes down on the south
