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'  
But everything is run, with a southern accent  
Where I come from  
  
I got my own way of working  
When everything is wrong  
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  
  
There's a dream I keep having  
Where my mama comes to me  
And she kneels down over by the window  
And says a prayer for me  
I got my own way of prayin'  
But everyone's begun  
With a southern accent  
Where I come from  
  
We have our own way of livin'  
But everything is done  
With a southern accent  
Where I come from
