Northern Accent
Seems like yesterday
The buildings reached the sky
Now
Here
Singing songs of me as my hometown says goodbye
Was my place
Was my family
Though we're close
We're far apart
Carolina Saturdays don't have that northern start
West Virginia
Be it Georgia or Tennessee
The Appalachian Blue Ridge or an island in a southern sea
A southern sky
A southern scene
Where the people work hard for the American dream
Still
Northern accent will always be a part of me
Born Virginia sound
In three years running I was Jersey bound
Learned to speak a way up north
Southern man would rather see you take your slang forth
12 years due
Old Tavern Road was behind us, now
The house was sold
Back down country
Carolina bound
My southern voice had a northern sound
West Virginia
Be it Georgia or Tennessee
The Appalachian Blue Ridge or an island in a southern sea
A southern sky
A southern scene
Where the people work hard for the American dream
Still
Northern accent will always be a part of me
Take me home
Take me home
West Virginia
Be it Georgia or Tennessee
The Appalachian Blue Ridge or an island in a southern sea
A southern sky
A southern scene
Where the people work hard for the American dream
Still
Northern accent will always be a part of me
With me
With me
The buildings reached the sky
Now
Here
Singing songs of me as my hometown says goodbye
Was my place
Was my family
Though we're close
We're far apart
Carolina Saturdays don't have that northern start
West Virginia
Be it Georgia or Tennessee
The Appalachian Blue Ridge or an island in a southern sea
A southern sky
A southern scene
Where the people work hard for the American dream
Still
Northern accent will always be a part of me
Born Virginia sound
In three years running I was Jersey bound
Learned to speak a way up north
Southern man would rather see you take your slang forth
12 years due
Old Tavern Road was behind us, now
The house was sold
Back down country
Carolina bound
My southern voice had a northern sound
West Virginia
Be it Georgia or Tennessee
The Appalachian Blue Ridge or an island in a southern sea
A southern sky
A southern scene
Where the people work hard for the American dream
Still
Northern accent will always be a part of me
Take me home
Take me home
West Virginia
Be it Georgia or Tennessee
The Appalachian Blue Ridge or an island in a southern sea
A southern sky
A southern scene
Where the people work hard for the American dream
Still
Northern accent will always be a part of me
With me
With me
