[Verse 1]
Misty sunrise in my hometown
Rows of cotton about knee high
Mrs. Baker down the dirt road
Still got clothes out on the line
Erwin Nichols there
With Judsley playin' checkers at the gin
When I dream about the Southland
This is where it all begins
[Chorus]
From Carolina down to Georgia
Smell the jasmine and magnolia
Sleepy sweet home Alabama
"Roll Tide Roll"
Muddy water Mississippi
Blessed Graceland whispers to me
"Carry on, carry on"
Sweet Southern comfort, carry on
[Verse 2]
Catching catfish on the river
Chasing fireflies by the creek
Kissing Gabby Williams' sister
On the porch homecoming week
Misty sunrise in my hometown
Rows of cotton about knee high
Mrs. Baker down the dirt road
Still got clothes out on the line
Erwin Nichols there
With Judsley playin' checkers at the gin
When I dream about the Southland
This is where it all begins
[Chorus]
From Carolina down to Georgia
Smell the jasmine and magnolia
Sleepy sweet home Alabama
"Roll Tide Roll"
Muddy water Mississippi
Blessed Graceland whispers to me
"Carry on, carry on"
Sweet Southern comfort, carry on
[Verse 2]
Catching catfish on the river
Chasing fireflies by the creek
Kissing Gabby Williams' sister
On the porch homecoming week
