John Anderson Bonnie Blue Lyrics

Bonnie Blue Lyrics

You're the mother of the Southland

Where I was born and bred

You're in my heart and everythin' I do



Yeah, you always have a place for me

To rest my weary head

And I will always love you, Bonnie Blue



Bonnie Blue, is your Spanish moss still hangin'?

Bonnie Blue, does your cotton still grow tall?

Bonnie Blue, I've been wonderin' and a waitin'

And it's hard to tell if anybody cares at all



Bonnie Blue, I sure miss you

Oh, Bonnie Blue, I'm sure missin' you



Bonnie Blue, I can smell your Sunday dinner

Bonnie Blue, your magnolias are in bloom

Bonnie Blue, you know you always were a winner

And remember there is someone here

Who still loves you



Bonnie Blue, I sure miss you

Oh, Bonnie Blue, I'm sure missin' you



You're the mother of the Southland

Where I was born and bred

You're in my heart and everythin' I do



Yeah, you always have a place for me

To rest my weary head

And I will always love you, Bonnie Blue



Oh, Bonnie Blue, is your tattered flag still flyin'?

Bonnie Blue, yeah, they showed you wrong from right

Bonnie Blue, I'm so sorry that I'm cryin'

But there's not a lotta difference

Between black and white



Bonnie Blue, I sure miss you

Oh, Bonnie Blue, I'm sure missin' you
