SOUTHERN LOVING

(Jim Owen)

« © '73 Unichappell Music »

I've been loved in Cincinnati Evansville and St Paul

All the gals were pretty and I ain't tryin' to find no fault

There's a gal in the Windy City I can't forget about

But if you want to love like you ain't had love go south south south

Southern loving take that southern loving every time

There's a sweet thing in Augusta got the softest lips of all

When she kisses on you you just climb right up the wall

And there's a nurse I know in Memphis got love for a middle name

If she ever gets her hands on you it's shame shame shame

Southern loving take that southern loving every time

Now everybody's heard about that southern hospitality

But that ain't why the sunny south has got a hold on me

There's a teacher down in Dallas I ain't seen in quite sometime

Just to think about her burns a hole right through my mind

And there's a gal in Bogalusa just can't love enough

I'll tell you about her with just three words she's tough tough tough

Southern loving take that southern loving every time

Now everybody's heard about...

It's southern loving take that southern loving every time
