Sweet Southern Comfort

[Verse 1:] Misty sunrise in my hometown Rows of cotton about knee high Mrs. Baker down the dirt road Still got clothes out on the line Erwin Nichols there With Judsley playin checkers at the gin When I dream about the Southland This is where it all begins [Chorus:] From Carolina down to Georgia Smell the jasmine and magnolia Sleepy sweet home Alabama Roll Tide Roll Muddy water Mississippi Blessed Graceland whispers to me Carry on, carry on Sweet Southern comfort, carry on [Verse 2:] Catching catfish on the river Chasing fireflies by the creek Kissing Gabby Williams' sister On the porch homecoming week With rusted cars and weeping willows Keeping watch out in the yard Just a snapshot of downhome Dixie Could be anywhere you are [Chorus:] In Carolina or in Georgia Open arms are waiting for you Louisiana Yellow Rose of San Antone Arkansas Mississippi Old man river whispers to me Carry on, carry on Sweet Southern comfort, carry on [Bridge:] As I sit here I'm surrounded by these priceless memories I don't have to think about it There's no place I'd rather be Than [Chorus:] Carolina or in Georgia Smell the jasmine and magnolia Sleepy sweet home Alabama Roll Tide Roll Muddy water Mississippi Blessed Graceland whispers to me Carry on, carry on Sweet Southern comfort Carry on, carry on Sweet Southern comfort, carry on
