That's what I like about the south



Well let's go back to Alabammy
Let's go see my dear old mammy
She's fryin' eggs and cookin' ham
And that's what I like about the south
Boy, you won't be no mistakey
You oughta taste that layer cake
You see that's what I like about the south


They got baked ribs and candied yams
Sugar cured Virginia hams
・・・・・and berry jams
And that's what I like about the south
Cornbread and turnip greens
Ham hocks and butter beans
Mardi Gras down in New Orleans
And that's what I like about the south


Here comes that guy with all the news
Box back coat and button shoes
He's paid up with his union dues
And that's what I like about the south
There's a place down here called Doo Wah Diddy
It ain't no town and it ain't no city
Oh but it's pretty it's mighty pretty
Doo Wan Diddy, oh yeah


Now every time I pass your door
You act like you don't want me no more
Just shake your head and sigh
And I'll go truckin' right on by
'Cause I ain't here to criticize
And I ain't here to sympathize
Don't tell me them no good lies
'Causee a lyin' gal I do despise


That's what I like about the South
Y'all come down for some of mama's chicken
Homemade biscuits, yeah
