Lyrics

Headed back down south
Gonna see my dad's mistress
Gonna buy back her forgiveness
Pay your very witness
One more time down south
Sell the family headstones
Drag a bag of dry bones
Be good to my backbone
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
Sleep late down south
Look up my formentors
Live off yankee winters
Be a landlord and a renter
Create myself down south
Impress all the women
Pretend I'm Sam'll Clemens
And seersucker in white linens
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
Spanish moss down south
Spirits cross the dead fields
Mosquitoes hit the windshield
All documents remain sealed
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
So if I come to your door
Let me sleep on your floor
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
I'll give you all I have
And a little more
