"Down South" Lyrics

"Down South"

I was born, I was blessed
Right place, right time, I guess
Ain't no good reason why I left
Except to run and roam

Would you take me back and take me in?
Let me be your child again
Kiss my cheek, forgive my sins
Let me call you home

Oh I may stay here for a while

If I'm gonna fly, gonna fly down South
I'm gonna drive, gonna find a small town
South is where my momma lives
And where my little piece of heaven is
And I'm gonna dream, gonna dream of your face
I'm gonna go, gonna go to that place
And figure out what I lost and found
Down South

Religion and me don't always agree but I sure love my Maker
Sounds just like a gospel song when I sing my little prayer
Got rocks in my shoes, holes in my soul
And I'm covered in dirt from head to toe
From walking along this winding road that brought me back to here

Oh I may stay here for a while

If I'm gonna fly, gonna fly down South
I'm gonna drive, gonna find a small town
South is where my momma lives
And where my little piece of heaven is
And I'm gonna dream, gonna dream of your face
I'm gonna go, gonna go to that place
And figure out what I lost and found
Down South

Oooh, Na na na na na na
Ooooh, Na na na

Oh I may stay here for a while

If I'm gonna fly, gonna fly down South
I'm gonna drive, gonna find a small town
South is where my momma lives
And where my little piece of heaven is
And I'm gonna dream, gonna dream of your face
I'm gonna go, gonna go to that place
And figure out what I lost and found
Down South

Oooh, Na na na na na na
Ooooh, Na na na

Down south, born and raised
Down south, where I learnt to pray
Down south, is where I'll stay
Down south [x2]

Rocks in my shoes, holes in my soul
I'm covered in dirt from head to toe.
