[Verse 1]
I learned my manners and I learned respect
At the end of a willow switch
I learned how to work, you know I learned how to sweat
With a shovel in a ditch
[Verse 2]
Learned about love in the backseat of a Chevy
With a girl named Marianne
I learned how to roar 'til the break of dawn
Playin' in a honky tonk band
[Chorus]
Don't you wonder who I am?
I'm the pride of Dixieland
And I talk slow so y'all understand
I'm a southern man
I'm your southern man
[Verse 3]
I learned how to sip that moonshine whiskey
In the hills of Tennesee
I learned how to deal from a Mississippi gambler
On a boat down to New Orleans
[Verse 4]
I learned how to fight for my rights in Alabama
And how to run from a jealous man
I'm your lifetime friend and your good time buddy
When you shake my hand
I learned my manners and I learned respect
At the end of a willow switch
I learned how to work, you know I learned how to sweat
With a shovel in a ditch
[Verse 2]
Learned about love in the backseat of a Chevy
With a girl named Marianne
I learned how to roar 'til the break of dawn
Playin' in a honky tonk band
[Chorus]
Don't you wonder who I am?
I'm the pride of Dixieland
And I talk slow so y'all understand
I'm a southern man
I'm your southern man
[Verse 3]
I learned how to sip that moonshine whiskey
In the hills of Tennesee
I learned how to deal from a Mississippi gambler
On a boat down to New Orleans
[Verse 4]
I learned how to fight for my rights in Alabama
And how to run from a jealous man
I'm your lifetime friend and your good time buddy
When you shake my hand
