Deep Down in the South

Deep down in the southland we got that muscle shoals

We got cornbread and catfish and cane poles

Them Delta blues still kicked out on transistor radios

Raised on love of Jesus and rock 'n' roll

Ain't no doubt about it now

I love it deep down in the south

I feel like heaven's shining down

When you're deep down in the south

Granny's in the kitchen cookin' mustard greens

And magnolias bloomin' muscadine and pine trees

Them boys down in a pasture drinking homemade shine

Rolling up a fatty with trouble on their mind

Ain't no doubt about it now

I love it deep down in the south

It's calling me now

Deep down in the south

Back there in Big Thicket

You can hear an old hound dog moan

It's that same ol' lonesome sound

That keeps calling me home

Ain't no doubt about it now

I love it deep down in the south

I feel like heaven's shining down

When you're deep down in the south

When you're deep down in the south
