[Verse 1] I left my home in Georgia.  Took a dream and a dollar Went looking for that fortune and fame Well I found it up in Nashville With the guitars and the fiddles Started singing ’cross the U.S. of A I’d played my songs in Georgia   Way down there in Florida Once or twice in New Orleans But the sounds I was making Didn’t know that I’d be taking them to places that’s so far and strange But the people really dug it no matter where we strummed it I felt that it would be ok Cause I learned right away It ain’t just a southern thang [Chorus] Now I’ve played in Chicago and Western Colorado And we kicked ’em dead in Sante Fe Sung in North and South Dakota And Eastern Oklahoma And a TV show out in LA They got the hats and boots And them country roots No matter what state they claim Yeah the facts are plain  ….It ain’t just a southern thang [Verse 2] I’ve seen cowgirls a plenty Up in New York City Milwaukee and in Philly PA They got the four wheel drives on that Minnesota ice Just like they have in Alabam A They’re dancing and they’re moving To the lyrics and the music From Maui up to Bangor Maine Lord it may sound strange But it ain’t just a southern thang [Chorus] Now I’ve played in Chicago and Western Colorado And we kicked ’em dead in Sante Fe Sung in North and South Dakota And Eastern Oklahoma And a TV show out in LA They got the hats and boots And them country roots No matter what state they claim Yeah the facts are plain  ….It ain’t just a southern thang [Bridge] I’ve played that country music…….On the land and the ocean But people can’t say my name Yeah the fact remains……It ain’t just a southern thang [Break]              [Chorus]                                  Oh I’ve played in Chicago and Western Colorado And we kicked ’em dead in Sante Fe Sung in North and South Dakota And Eastern Oklahoma And a TV show out in LA They got the hats and boots And them country roots No matter what state they claim Yeah the facts are plain  ….It ain’t just a southern thang Yeah the facts are plain  ….It ain’t just a southern thang Oh it may sound strange…….It ain’t just a southern thang Yeah the fact remains……It ain’t just a southern thang y’all

La chanson évoque le parcours d'un musicien qui, après avoir quitté sa Géorgie natale avec des rêves et un peu d'argent, se lance à la conquête de la scène musicale à travers les États-Unis. Il découvre rapidement que sa musique, bien que profondément ancrée dans le sud, touche des cœurs dans des endroits aussi variés que Chicago, New York, et même Los Angeles. En somme, il réalise que l'amour pour la musique country ne se limite pas aux régions du sud, mais se retrouve un peu partout, réunissant des personnes de divers horizons. Ce récit témoigne de l'universalité de la culture et de l'art, montrant que les racines et les passions peuvent transcender les frontières géographiques.
