Southern Life (What It Must Be Like)
All my life I closed my eyes
And stumbled in with wayward mind
A stubborn child, but love did have
With one light shining, overlooked
Oh, I wish I knew what you had said
I was hardened by what thoughts you meant
My hands are shaking as a mother
Trying to raise her son right
Why can't you see it from the other side?
We must imagine what it must be like
The southern life
It's such a fucking lie
Oh, what it must be like
Shall his life be like my shooting star
Forever frozen? No, he's too smart
I can't believe what I have seen
I wake up to a fucking dream
There is no light, there is no dark
There is no life or sense of being
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
Such a southern life
Such a southern life
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
And stumbled in with wayward mind
A stubborn child, but love did have
With one light shining, overlooked
Oh, I wish I knew what you had said
I was hardened by what thoughts you meant
My hands are shaking as a mother
Trying to raise her son right
Why can't you see it from the other side?
We must imagine what it must be like
The southern life
It's such a fucking lie
Oh, what it must be like
Shall his life be like my shooting star
Forever frozen? No, he's too smart
I can't believe what I have seen
I wake up to a fucking dream
There is no light, there is no dark
There is no life or sense of being
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
Such a southern life
Such a southern life
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
Oh, what it must be like
