Head South

HEAD SOUTH

Head south in the morning, just take off with no warning 
Tell your boss you need a change of scene 
Head south if you're feeling your homesick heart is reeling 
And get yourself a bowl of butterbeans 

Anywhere east of the Rio Grande 
gets you a cane pole in your hand 
fry a mess of fish up on the bank 
Cross that Mason-Dixon line, leave your cares and worries behind 
sit out under a willow tree and think 
Head south, are you listening 
you don't know what you're missing 
from Virginia shores to the Gulf of Mexico 
Head south to Kentucky, Blue Ridge Mountains if you're lucky 
from the Florida Keys to the banks of the Ohio 
You will feel the heart of Texas swing Dixieland down in New Orleans 
Delta blues on the side of the riverbank 
Country soul down in Tennessee 
and that mountain music's all right by me 
hot jambalaya you're in the land of Hank 
Head south God amighty 
ain't the thought of it exciting 
crab cakes cornbread crawfish and barbeque 
Head south, horn of plenty, for the few and the many 
all the south is missing man is you
