Letra
[Verse 1]
Whoa, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm blue-collared, branded, and stuck in a mill
Hard work is the way of life to me
Well, I'm too young to live like I'm over the hill
And too old to be wild and free
[Verse 3]
My heart is homeward bound
I'm rollin' with the feelin' and I can't slow down
I need a guiding light
Shining down to lead me through the night
[Verse 4]
Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home
[Verse 5]
Ah, yeah
[Verse 6]
Whoa, hey, my DJ friend
Would you play me one more song?
And let my mind just go and drift away
Now we all have a dream
And a place where we belong
Somewhere we can go and escape
[Verse 7]
My heart is homeward bound
I'm rollin' with the feelin' and I can't slow down
I need a guiding light
Shining down to lead me through the night
[Verse 8]
Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home
[Verse 9]
Oh, yeah
Woo, hey
[Verse 10]
Whoa, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home
