[Verse 1]
I left my home in Georgia
Took a dream and a dollar
Went looking for that fortune and fame
Well I found it up in Nashville
With the guitars and the fiddles
Started singing ‘cross the U.S. of A
Well I’d played my songs in Georgia
Way down there in Florida
Once or twice in New Orleans
But the sounds I was making
Didn’t know that I’d be taking
Them to places that’s so far and so strange
But the people really dug it
No matter where we strummed it
I felt it would be OK
‘Cos I learned right away
It ain’t just a southern thing!
[Chorus]
Now I’ve played up in Chicago
And western Colorado
And we kicked ‘em dead in Santé Fe
Sung in North and South Dakota
And eastern Oklahoma
And a TV-Show out in L.A
They got the hats and boots
And them country roots
No matter what state they claim
Yeah the facts are plain
It ain’t just a southern thing!
