Southern

 Yes we're southern

Southern chickens

Southern humans

Southern slaves


We're not northern

No we're southern

Southern living

Southern waves

Southern people

Southern ways


Give us white bread 

In the morning

Give us fried eggs

In the day

Give us white legs

Without warning

Give us brightness

Of the day


Yes, were Southern

Southern living

In the sunshine

Making hay

Come the sun down

Finds us yawning

How to rake in

What we're paid
