[Verse 1:]
Oh, cover me with this deep south
While the wind is croonin' lullabies
Talk me into paradise
Somewhere deep in the heart of the South

Yellow moon is hangin' low
Over fields of cotton white as snow
My heart longs to turn it gold
Somewhere deep in the heart of the South

[Verse 2:]
Laughter fills the afternoon
And every evening lovers linger on the Swanee shores
I can see Magnolias bloom
Around the cabin door
And that's where I'm goin'
Sure as your born

I'm a weary rollin' stone
Made my mind up and I'm goin' home
Come on seed and start to grow
Somewhere deep in the heart of the South

[Verse 3:]
Laughter fills the afternoon
And every evening lovers linger on the Swanee shores
I can see Magnolias bloom around the cabin door
And that's where I'm goin'
Sure as your born
