Boys from the South

Maybe he's in Texas, maybe this town

Maybe Oklahoma, plowin' up some ground

Southern Carolina, somewhere on the coast

Maybe Alabama, drivin' through Montgomery, right now

There's something 'bout a boy from the South

Maybe he's in Florida, somewhere in the pines

Maybe on the delta, throwin' out a line

Maybe he's in Georgia, starin' at the stars

Maybe Tennessee pickin' on a guitar, right now

There's something 'bout a boy from the South

Yeah, the first time I felt it I was only 16

And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree

Said "Goodnight darlin',"with a sweet Southern drawl

Man, I think I might just have to love them all

The boys from the South

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Maybe in Kentucky, workin' in the mines

Maybe down in Little Rock, just to pass the time

Maybe he's somewhere in New Orleans

Livin' it up in the Big Easy, right now

There's something 'bout a boy from the South

Yeah, the first time I felt it I was only 16

And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree

Said "Goodnight darlin',"with a sweet Southern drawl

Man, I think I might just have to love them all

The boys from the South

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Maybe he's in Texas, maybe this town

My boy from the South

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh yeah
