I remember leaving my hometown to
live in another city
living in the deep south on my own
the days go by and seasons change
winter soon became summer
feeling nostalgic to go home once again

southern trail
I'm going home again
southern trail
I'm on my way home
from the valleys of gold
a southern town
where the scent of 
smoke and whiskey fill the air

arriving in my home town
on a summer day
my friends are there greeting me
with faces smiling sweetly
it's good coming home once again

southern trail
I'm going home again
southern trail
I'm on my way home
from the valleys of gold
a southern town
where the scent of
smoke and whiskey fill the air

(8th repeat/a refrain)

these summer holidays are the best
I am glad coming home for a rest
my friends and I have fun all summer
while I am home for the holidays

southern trail
I'm going home again
southern trail
I'm on my way home
from the valleys of gold
a southern town
where the scent of
smoke and whiskey fill the air.
