Sweet Southern Comfort Songtext
Misty sunrise in my hometown
Rows of cotton 'bout knee high
Mrs. Baker down the dirt road
Still got clothes out on the line
Erwin Nichols there with Judge Lee
Playin checkers at the gin
When I dream about the southland,
This is where it all begins

From Carolina down to Georgia
Smell the jasmine and magnolia
Sleepy sweet home Alabama
Roll tide roll
Muddy water, Misssissippi,
Blessed Graceland whispers to me,
Carry on, carry on,
Sweet southern comfort
Carry on

Catchin catfish on the river
Chasin fireflies by the creek
Kissin Gary William's sister,
On the porch Homecomin' week,
With rusty cars and weeping willows,
Keepin' watch out in the yard
Just a snapshot of downhome Dixie
Could be anywhere you are,

In Carolina or in Georgia
Open arms are waitin for ya,
Louisianna yellow rose of San Antone
Arkansas, Mississippi,
Old man river whispers to me,
Carry on, carry on,
Sweet southern comfort
Carry on

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

In Carolina or in Georgia,
Smell the jasmine and magnolia
Sleepy sweet home Alabama
Roll tide roll
Muddy water, Misssissippi,
Blessed Graceland whispers to me,
Carry on, carry on,
Sweet southern comfort,
Carry on, Carry on,
Sweet southern comfort
Carry on
