There's a southern accent, where i come from
the young'uns call it country
the yankees call it dumb
i got my own way of talkin'
but everything is done, with a southern accent
where i come from
Now that drunk tank in atlanta's
just a motel room to me
think i might go work orlando
if them orange groves don't freeze
i got my own way of workin'
but everything is run, with a southern accent
where i come from
For just a minute there i was dreaming
for just a minute it was all so real
for just a minute she was standing there, with me
There's a dream i keep having
where my mama comes to me
and kneels down over by the window
and says a prayer for me
i got my own way of prayin'
but everyone's begun
with a sou thern accent
where i come from
I got my own way of livin'
but everything gets done
with a southern accent
where i come from
