Down South

Headed back down south

Gonna see my daddy's mistress

Gonna buy back her forgivness

Pay off every witness

One more time down south

Sell the family headstones

Drag a bag of dry bones

Make good on my back loans

So if I come to your door

Let me sleep on your floor

I'll give you all I have

And a little more

Sleep late down south

Look up my former mentors

Live off yankee winters

Be a landlord and a renter

Create myself down south

Impress all the women

Pretend I'm samuel clemens

Wear seersucker and white linens

So if I come to your door

Let me sleep on your floor

I'll give you all I have

And a little more

Spanish moss down south

Spirits cross the dead fields

Mosquitoes hit the windshield

All document remain sealed

So if I come to your door

Let me sleep on your floor

I'll give you all I have

And a little more

I'll give you all I have

And a little more
