Southern Side Of Town Lyrics

In the mud on my workboots is the way where I come from

 I may talk a little slower than you

 That dont make me dumb

 I fix your cars and I build your homes til my hands are cracked and
calloused

 Some folks dont understand 

 What Im about and who I am

 

 I was born on the southern side of the river

 Where a handshake is your contract, your name means everything

 I was raised on a good books promise and the pride my daddy taught me

 Where you work hard for a livin

 Yeah thats always been a given

 Dont you run her down, Ill stand my ground on the southern side of town

 

 I dont ask for many favors

 I earned every dime I make

 And I dont feel like Ive sold my soul at the end of a long hard day

 I just bring my tired back and worn out dreams home to my woman

 She never does complain

 But I know she feels the same

 

 I was born on the southern side of the river

 Where a handshake is your contract, your name means everything

 I was raised on a good books promise and the manners my mama taught me

 Where old ways are not forsaken

 And theres still a few things sacred

 Ill live and die and I wont deny the southern side of town

 

 Yeah sometimes I get to dreamin beyond these county lines

 Hey but the deepest voice within me draws me back every time

 

 I was raised on a good books promise and the pride my daddy taught me

 Where you work hard for a livin

 Yeah thats always been a given

 Ill live and die and I wont deny the southern side of town

 Where old ways are not forsaken

 And theres still a few things sacred

 So dont you run her down,

 Cause I stand my ground on the southern side of town

 

 Im from the southern side of town

 

 God bless the southern side of town
