Someone's Southern Song
Years ago
When I left home
I left a girl
I lived alone
And the purpose of my life
Was an easy one
I found a way
To open gates
Found peaceful towns
In sadder states
Saw greener greens
And deeper skies
Escaped the crashing overhead
To neon signs
And we smoked our cigarettes
In a brand new town
Middle of the night, it was cold and alight
And the room above was swaying
And someone's lonely southern song was playing
Came to get down in a Mississippi town
And we found where we're staying
We were finally more free
Than we'd ever be
Then I found the eyes of some lovely girl with some lovely smile
Then stared back ahead to the band for a while
And it might have just been the moment,
My drunken mind or the bright moon above
And although I knew she'd be gone, I knew it was love
Middle of the night
It was cold and alight
And the room above was swaying
And someone's lonely southern song was playing
Came to get down in a Mississippi town
And we found where we're staying
We were finally more free
Than we'd ever be
Someone's southern song
Someone's southern song
Someone's southern song
Someone's southern song
When I left home
I left a girl
I lived alone
And the purpose of my life
Was an easy one
I found a way
To open gates
Found peaceful towns
In sadder states
Saw greener greens
And deeper skies
Escaped the crashing overhead
To neon signs
And we smoked our cigarettes
In a brand new town
Middle of the night, it was cold and alight
And the room above was swaying
And someone's lonely southern song was playing
Came to get down in a Mississippi town
And we found where we're staying
We were finally more free
Than we'd ever be
Then I found the eyes of some lovely girl with some lovely smile
Then stared back ahead to the band for a while
And it might have just been the moment,
My drunken mind or the bright moon above
And although I knew she'd be gone, I knew it was love
Middle of the night
It was cold and alight
And the room above was swaying
And someone's lonely southern song was playing
Came to get down in a Mississippi town
And we found where we're staying
We were finally more free
Than we'd ever be
Someone's southern song
Someone's southern song
Someone's southern song
Someone's southern song
