I've been loved in Cincinnati Evansville and St Paul
|
All the gals were pretty and I ain't tryin' to find no fault
|
There's a gal in the Windy City I can't forget about
|
But if you want to love like you ain't had love go south south south
|
Southern loving take that southern loving every time
|
There's a sweet thing in Augusta got the softest lips of all
|
When she kisses on you you just climb right up the wall
|
And there's a nurse I know in Memphis got love for a middle name
|
If she ever gets her hands on you it's shame shame shame
|
Southern loving take that southern loving every time
|
Now everybody's heard about that southern hospitality
|
But that ain't why the sunny south has got a hold on me
|
There's a teacher down in Dallas I ain't seen in quite sometime
|
Just to think about her burns a hole right through my mind
|
And there's a gal in Bogalusa just can't love enough
|
I'll tell you about her with just three words she's tough tough tough
|
Southern loving take that southern loving every time

Now everybody's heard about...
