|
I had a buddy come down 'round last July
|
Called me when he crossed the Mason-Dixon Line
|
Said he was headed down south and looking for a real good time
|
|
I said, "man come on I got a place in mind."
|
We pulled up at bar right off the Georgia line.
|
Walked in man his eyes got wide
|
And when his jaw hit the floor, all I could do was smile.
|
|
He said, "man, we got some pretty women up north
|
But I aint never seen nothing like this."
|
I said, "man, these here aint ordanary women.
|
We call these grits."
|
|
Shes a product of being raised in the country.
|
She knows her roots and works hard for her money.
|
A southern draw with dark tan legs.
|
Aint nuttin like a woman southern born and bred.
|
Now she loves her mama, daddy, and the Lord to death.
|
Acting innocent and playing hard to get
|
With her girls tonight, man, they're out on the town.
|
Prettiest thing, a girl raisied in the south.
|
|
Sat down at the bar had a couple drinks.
|
Breakin' his neck just scoping the scene.
|
Wasn't long before he had my attention pointed towards the door.
|
|
He was starin' at long legs that ran into boots.
|
Her short skirt and her t-shirt didn't have much use.
|
But she walked right to the jukebox and fired it up.
|
|
She had every head turning, boys eyes was burning
|
As she made her way out to the floor.
|
Had all the jealous girls lookin all sayin
|
"She ain't nothin' but a.."
|
Oh my God, she just broke it down low.
|
|
Product of being raised in the country.
|
She knows her roots and works hard for her money.
|
A southern draw with dark tan legs.
|
Aint nuttin like a woman southern born and bred.
|
Now she loves her mama, daddy, and the Lord to death.
|
Good at acting innocent and playing hard to get
|
With her girls tonight, man, they're out on the town.
|
Prettiest thing, a girl raisied in the south.
|
|
Shes a product of being raised in the country.
|
She knows her roots and works hard for her money.
|
Southern draw with dark tan legs.
|
Aint nuttin like a woman southern born and bred.
|
Now she loves her mama, daddy, and the Lord to death.
|
She's acting innocent but playing hard to get
|
With her girls tonight, man, they're out on the town.
|
Prettiest thing, a girl raisied in the south.
