Southern Voice

Hank Williams sang it
Number 3 drove it
Chuck Berry twanged it
Will Faulkner wrote it
Aretha Franklin sold it
Dolly Parton graced it
Rosa Parks rode it
Scarlett O chased it

Smooth as the Hickory wind that blows
From Memphis down to Appalachia, Cola
It's "Hi, y'all, did you eat well?"
Come on in, I'm sure glad to know ya
Don't let this old gold cross and
This Allman Brothers t-shirt throw ya
It's a kid who's makin' noise with a Southern voice

Hank Aaron smacked it
Michael Jordan dunked it
Pocahontas tracked it
Jack Daniels drunk it
Tom Petty rocked it
Dr. King paved it
Bear Bryant won it
Billy Graham saved it

Smooth as the Hickory wind that blows
From Memphis down to Appalachia, Cola
It's "Hi, y'all, did you eat well?"
Come on in, I'm sure glad to know ya
Don't let this old gold cross and this Crimson Tide t-shirt throw ya
It's a kid who's makin' noise with a Southern voice

Jesus is my friend
America is my home
Sweet iced tea and Jerry Lee
Daytona Beach, that's what gets to me
I can feel it in my bones

Smooth as the Hickory wind that blows
From Memphis down to Appalachia, Cola
It's "Hi, y'all, did you eat well?"
Come on in, I'm sure glad to know ya
Don't let this old gold cross and
This Charlie Daniels t-shirt throw ya
We're just boys makin' noise with a Southern voice

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Southern voice
I got a Southern voice
A Southern voice
