SOUTHERN RAINS

Writer Roger Murrah

Sometimes my soul gets weary and my mind begins to wonder

And like that old train “The Hummingbird” it goes to Alabam

They say home is where the heart is and mine is down in Dixie

And when you go down to Dixie you're heading for higher ground

(Southern rain) blowing from the coast of Mississippi

(Southern rain) I fell better when those southern waters hit me

I can't get into Jordan seven times to easy the pain

But I can pray for help and hope for southern rain

(Southern rain) like the sunshine it's a blessing sent from heaven

(Southern rain) they can wash away your cares if you let them

You may not believe my story and you may think I'm insane

But they're the closest thing to home those southern rains

Austick is a peeling that a body can't get over

There's no such thing as healing and it won't go away with time

When were young we want to get away when we're old we want to go back

And we spend our lives replacing all the things we leave behind

(Southern rain) blowing from the coast of Mississippi

(Southern rain) I fell better when those southern waters hit me

I can't get into Jordan seven times to easy the pain

But I can pray for help and hope for southern rain

(Southern rain) like the sunshine it's a blessing sent from heaven

(Southern rain) they can wash away your cares if you let them

You may not believe my story and you may think I'm insane

But they're the closest thing to home those southern rains
