SOUL SINGIN' SON OF THE SOUTH Lyrics

You know I played more honky-tonks than my share along the way

I paid my dues and lived through some blues just tryin' to find a way

There's been times when I got around to think about layin' it down

But it's in my blood, let me tell you, son, I'm a soul-singin' son of the South

I was raised up to believe in every word that the good book says

I stand up and be counted, don't care to be politically correct

The passion of my life comes to light every time I open my mouth

I was born to be up on this stage, cause I'm a soul-singin' son of the South

Things have changed all over the years, just a natural course, I guess

The backbeat still bangs out of time, just like the heart inside my chest

With a little country soul and some rock and roll, I can burn a beer joint down

I play my thing the American way, cause I'm a soul-singin' son of the South

I was raised up to believe in every word that the good book says

I stand up and be counted, don't care to be politically correct

The passion of my life comes to light every time I open my mouth

I was born to be up on this stage, cause I'm a soul-singin' son of the South

The passion of my life comes to light every time I open my mouth

I was born to be up on this stage, cause I'm a soul-singin' son of the South

Take it home now

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
