Tom Petty - Southern Accents (Live at Stephen C. OConnell Center Gainesville FL 9/21/06) Lyrics
Official




There's a southern accent
Where I come from
The young 'uns call it country
The Yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything is done
With a southern accent
Where I come from

Now that drunk tank in Atlanta's
Just a motel room to me
Think I might go work Orlando
If them orange groves don't freeze
I got my own way of workin'
And everything is run
With a southern accent
Where I come from

For just a minute there, I was dreaming
For just a minute, it was all so real
For just a minute, she was standing there, with me

And there's a dream I keep having
Where my mama comes to me
And kneels down over by the window
And says a prayer for me
I got my own way of prayin'
And everyone's begun
With a southern accent
Where I come from

I got my own way of livin'
And everything is done
With a southern accent
Where I come from
