Southward Bound

Southern stars, guide my heart, back to hallowed ground
From afar, I'm praying hard, praying to God I'm southward bound

Where I'm from, ain’t for some, that Southern Sun, boy the heat don’t play
And I don’t need, maps with streets, Little Lotts creek, will lead the way

Closing time, County line, sip that shine, we like corn that way
Now I’ve been told, these roads are closed, but if this snow holds, I'm headed South to stay

I’ve been working all season, freezing, away in the Detroit cold
Sure as I'm breathing, I'm leaving, Baby I'm headed back home

Southern stars, guide my heart, back to hallowed ground
From afar, I'm praying hard, praying to God I'm southward bound
I’ll be southward, I’ll be southward bound

Southern will, is hard to kill, and mama’s meals, are sacred proof
Shotgun shell, Daddy’s yell, and these Southern Belles, all ring loud and true

I’ve been working all season, freezing, away in the Detroit cold
Sure as I'm breathing, I'm leaving, Baby I'm headed back home

Southern stars, guide my heart, back to hallowed ground
From afar, I'm praying hard, praying to God I'm southward bound
I’ll be southward, I’ll be southward bound

I’ve been working all season, freezing, missing all my kinfolk
Needing my southern, woman, baby I'm headed home

Southern stars, guide my heart, back to hallowed ground
From afar, I'm praying hard, praying to God I'm southward bound
I’ll be southward, I’ll be southward bound
I’ll be southward, I’ll be southward bound
I’ll be southward, I’ll be southward bound
