headed back down south
gonna see my daddy's mistress
gonna buy back her forgivness
pay off every witness
One more time down south
sell the family headstones
drag a bag of dry bones
make good on my back loans
so if i come to your door
let me sleep on your floor
i'll give you all i have
and a little more
sleep late down south
look up my former mentors
live off yankee winters
be a landlord and a renter
create myself down south
impress all the women
pretend i'm samuel clemens
wear seersucker and white linens
so if i come to your door
let me sleep on your floor
i'll give you all i have
and a little more
spanish moss down south
spirits cross the dead fields
mosquitoes hit the windshield
all document remain sealed
so if i come to your door
let me sleep on your floor
i'll give you all i have
and a little more
i'll give you all i have
and a little more
