Made In The Dirty South

Made In The Dirty South

Verse 1
I like to eat corn dogs and spicy chili
Telling ghost stories by the camp fire
Hanging out with my g's and all of my girls
Anywhere that we meet
The best place to be on a Saturday morning
Was Big Al's barbershop
Whatever you heard would raise a few eyebrows
But there was certainly no shortage of laughter

Verse 2
I've got the accent, look and personality of a southerner
I've met my share of southern belles
And I can tell you each of them were full of life
And of course there are plenty of long, dusty roads
Summer weather is hot and hazy
We drank a lot of lemonade
Enjoyed neighbours company
I consider the south to be my extended family

Bridge 1
Here's a shout out to all the southerners
What's up!?
Y'all having a good time!?

Bridge 2
I love Dallas, I love Memphis
Jam it up, Louisiana!
Deep down to the bayou
Kentucky, Florida I will always remember you
Birmingham, you are the true underdog
Atlanta, you're hip and sizzling

Chorus
I was made in the dirty south
It will always be a part of me
Until the day that I die
I'm proud to say I belong to the southern community
The way of life down there has shaped who I am

I would've probably fought on the side of the South in the Civil War.
