Southern Call

A long long line of roughnecks or a mangled family tree
Well I don't know much about that I'm a misplaced yankee
I love the way you talk and the songs you know by heart
I think I want to be just like you but I don't know where to start

Is it the boots, the hats, the jeans?
The two steppin' on the scene?
Well it's music that I'm after I'll come clean
I like the way you say y'all
Waylon, Willie, and them all
And I hope that you don't mind that I answer
That southern call

I like the way you say y'all
Waylon, Willie, and them all
And I hope that you don't mind if I answer
That southern call

I think I'll head up north when my job down here is done
But for whatever it's worth, I have only just begun
So I'll wear these boots with pride, up and down 35
I'll make it clear as I can, I'm a southern city man

So I'll wear these boots with pride, up and down 35
I'll make it clear as I can, I'm a southern city man
I'll make it clear as I can, I'm a southern city man
I'll make it clear as I can, I'm a southern city man
