Southbound
Written Byz

M. McAnally
Grease in our hair
Hands in our pockets
We stood and stared
At cars going past

We placed our bets
Where they

were headed
And held

our cigarettes

Like movie stars
Grandmother's hands
Hard from

the garden
She had a plan

For me to preach

some day
She prayed for rain
She watched and
she waited
And

never complained
When it did not fall
Southb ound

breezes blowing
This town ain't

my home
You can slow me

down but I'm going
If I can turn this road

I'm on
Southbound
Stories I tell

Reek of nostalgia
And those that know

me well
Have heard them
all before

How far I've come
Mostly I'm proud of
But where I'm

coming from
Southb ound

breezes blowing
And this town ain't

my home
You can slow me

down but I'm going
If I can turn this road

I'm on
Southbound
You can slow me

down but I'm going
If I can turn this road

I'm on
If I can turn this road

I'm on
Southbound
Southb ound

breezes blowing
This town ain't

my home
You can slow me

down but I'm going
If I can turn this road

I'm on
Southbound
