When I was 15 I dreamed of leaving my home
|
I had to see the world
|
And live like a rolling stone, yeah
|
I heard California was paved in gold
|
So I hopped on that train
|
It didn't come easy
|
But I keep thinkin' bout
|
The green grass and missing my home
|
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
Where I can be myself and live another day
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
Where the tall pines blow
|
And the southern winds kiss my face
|
|
Oh southern grace
|
Yeah
|
|
Me and my boys started a band
|
Practiced everyday out on the Hell House land
|
Played every honky tonk and this ol' bar
|
To sing about Sweet 'Bama
|
We were just simple men
|
The music is forever
|
And the songs will never ever end
|
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
Where I can be myself and live another day, oh
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
Where the tall pines blow
|
And the southern winds kiss my face
|
|
Oh take me back!
|
|
I sit here thinkin' about those days
|
I wouldn't change a thing about my life today
|
Ain't it funny how time sure flies
|
Cause all I ever wanted and all I ever needed
|
Was you
|
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
Where I can be myself and live another day, oh
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
Where the tall pines blow
|
And the St. John's flows
|
And only God, he knows
|
And those southern winds kiss my face
|
|
Take me back to my southern ways
|
