When I was fifteen
I dreamed of leaving my home
I had to see the world
And live like a rolling stone, yeah
I heard California was paved in gold
So I hopped on that train
It didn't come easy
But I keep thinking about
The green grass and missing my home
Take me back to my
Southern ways
Where I can be myself and live another day
Take me back to my
Southern ways
Where the tall pines blow
And the Southern winds kiss my face
Oh, Southern grace
Yeah, me and my boys started a band
Practiced everyday out on the
Hell House land
Played every honky tonk and this old bar
To sing about
Sweet 'Bama
We were just simple men
The music is forever
And the songs will never ever end
Take me back to my
Southern ways
Where I can be myself and live another day
Take me back to my
Southern ways
Where the tall pines blow
And the Southern winds kiss my face
Oh, take me back
I sit here thinking about those days
I wouldn't change a thing about my life today
Ain't it funny how time sure flies
Cause all
I ever wanted
And all I ever needed was you
Take me back to my
Southern ways
Where I can be myself, yeah live another day, oh
Take me back to my
Southern ways
Where the tall pines blow
And the St
John's flows and only
God, He knows
And those
Southern winds kiss my face
Take me back to my
Southern ways
