On a highway headed south somewhere to Dixie
|
Where the cotton blooms in spring and snow don't fly
|
I'm gonna rest these chilly bones in southern sunshine
|
And live where the weather's warm until I die
|
North Dakota you've got my better years Montana you've got five years of my life
|
But your subzero wind will never touch me again
|
Southern folks can't live on snow and ice
|
On a highway headed south...
|
When I cross the Dixie line I'll throw away my coat
|
And my goods down underwear will have to go
|
I'll never live again where the weather chills you to the bone
|
I'm tired of livin' like an Eskimo
|
On a highway headed south...
|
On a highway headed south...
