Southern Child

Woah, woah, ooh
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah

Now, I'm a southern child, southern child
From down in Macon, Georgia
Everybody knew where I was born
Now, I've been seekin', searchin', Lordy, Lordy
Tryna find my baby
Tryna bring my baby back on home

Now, I'm a southern child, southern child
From down in Macon, Georgia
Everybody knew where I was born
Now, I've been seekin', searchin', Lordy, Lordy
Tryna find my baby
I'm tryna bring my baby back on home

Now, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
40, 40, 40, 40
Everybody wants to know the number
Now, I've been seekin', searchin', Lordy, Lordy
Tryna find my baby
Tryna bring my baby back on home

Now, I'm a southern child, southern child
From down in Macon, Georgia
Everybody knew where I was born
Now, I've been seekin', searchin', Lordy, Lordy
Tryna find my baby
I'm tryna bring my baby back on home

Woah, woah, ooh
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah

Now, I'm a southern child, southern child
From down in Macon, Georgia
Everybody knows where I was born
Now, I've been seekin', searchin', Lordy, Lordy
Tryna find my baby
Tryna bring my baby back on home
