Jack Nitzsche - Southern Accents lyrics

There's a southern accent, where I come from The young'uns call it country, the yankees call it dumb I got my own way of talkin, but everything is done With a southern accent where I come from Now that drunk tank in Atlanta is just a motel room to me Think I might go work Orlando If them orange groves don't freeze I got my own way of workin' but everything is run With a southern accent where I come from For just a minute there I was dreaming For just a minute it was all so real For just a minute she was standing there with me There's a dream I keep having where my mama comes to me And kneels down over by the window and says a prayer for me I got my own way of prayin' but everyone's begun With a southern accent where I come from I got my own way of livin' but everything gets done With a southern accent where I come from
