Lynyrd Skynyrd - Southern Ways lyrics

Your rating:

When I was 15 I dreamed of leaving my home 

I had to see the world 

And live like a rolling stone 

I heard California was paved in gold 

So I hopped on that train 

It didn't come easy 

But I keep thinkin' bout 

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 



Me and my boys started a band 

Practiced everyday out on the Hell House land 

Played every honky tonk and this ol' 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 thinkin' 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 and live another day 

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
