Southern View

Verse:
I didn’t get to the office ‘till half past late traffic was brutal on the interstate
And I couldn’t find a space in the parking lot
Herded like cattle down a concrete path I almost got hit by a speedin cab
And he got so mad that he flipped me off

Pre-Chorus:
There’s a million people here but I feel alone
Oh but things will look a whole lot better when I get home

Chorus:
I walk through the door and she’s standin’ there
The former queen of the Dixie county fair
My little boy’s runnin’ to me in his cowboy boots
There’s a green bean casserole sittin’ on the stove
A poster of Dale on Daytona Pit Row
Don’t matter where I go or where I move too
Oh as long as I got a home with a Southern view

Verse:
I got a patch a grass that they call a yard it’s been too long since I’ve seen the stars
Like back on the farm where I come from
I moved up here for better pay hey it’s only a job at the end of the day
I do whatever it takes they keep me on the run

Pre-Chorus:
Oh but this right where I wanna be
As long as my family’s here with me

Chorus:
I walk through my door and she’s standin’ there
The former queen of the Dixie county fair
My little boy runnin’ to me in his cowboy boots
And there’s a green bean casserole sittin’ on the stove
A poster of Dale on Daytona Pit Row
It don’t matter where I go or where I move too
Oh, as long as I got a home with a Southern view

Chorus:
I walk through the door and she’s standin’ there
The former queen of the Dixie county fair
My little boy’s runnin’ to me in his cowboy boots
And there’s a green bean casserole sittin’ on the stove
A poster of Dale on Daytona’s Pit Row
It don’t matter where I go or where I move too
Oh, as long as I got a home
As long as I got a home
Oh as long as I got a home with a Southern view
