Lyrics Hey Y'all - Adam Wainwright

We're all about good manners, and the kids better sit up straight
We open the door for our elders, don't take the Lord's name in vain
We respond with a "Yes ma'am," and a "Yes sir" when we're called
If there's one thing you can be sure of, down here we say "Hey y'all"

We say "Hey y'all, how you been?
How's your daddy and your momma and them?"
Y'all wanna take a ride down to the lake?
The path's ahead, no time to waste
I know it might sound weird
The way we talk if you ain't from here
We were born into this Southern drawl
So we say "Hey y'all"
So we say "Hey y'all"

I know everbody's different, but I earned this Georgia twang
I'm proud of where I come from, there ain't nothin' that I would change
Me and all my people, we ain't the high brow type
We just give a shout and holler out, 'cause man it just feels right

When we say "Hey y'all, how you been?
How's your daddy and your momma and them?"
Y'all wanna take a ride down to the lake?
The path's ahead, no time to waste
I know it might sound weird
The way we talk if you ain't from here
We were born into this Southern drawl
So we say "Hey y'all"

They lay me down in the graveyard after hearing the good Lord's call
I'll be singing this song when I get there
Don't worry, 'cause I'll be waitin' on all y'all

And I'll say "Hey y'all, how you been?
How's your daddy and your momma and them?"
Y'all wanna take a ride down to the lake?
The path's ahead, no time to waste
I know it might sound weird
The way we talk if you ain't from here
We were born into this Southern drawl
So we say "Hey y'all" (Woah, woah)
We say "Hey y'all" (Woah, woah)
We say "Hey y'all" (Woah, woah)
