Southern Boys

Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Southern Boys [Intro] [Verse 1] Southern boys are warm and lovely       They speak gently of their homes and show you pictures of the folks Their breath in your ear is as soft as the cotton       Whether they’re wooing or whispering the latest racist joke [Chorus] I get knocked right off my feet When I hear that Southern drawl Ooh ooh ooh  ooh Ooh ooh ooh  ooh And I don’t mind the pain ’Cause the feeling’s worth the fall         [Verse 2] Buttered grits is fare for breakfast       And if you like and your aim is good maybe a squirrel Then around nine we pass that moonshine       And it’s on out to the porch for a moonlight swing with me your Northern girl [Chorus] I get knocked right off my feet When I hear that Southern drawl Ooh ooh ooh  ooh Ooh ooh ooh  ooh And I don’t mind the pain ’Cause the feeling’s worth the fall    [Verse 3] Were you born? Oh where do you come from?       Is your tropic in Cancer and is your sun sign divine? Oh let it out oh please don’t hide it       All that good ol’ stuff down below that Mason-Dixon Line [Chorus] I get knocked right off my feet When I hear that Southern drawl And I don’t mind the pain ’Cause the feeling’s worth the fall    Ooh ooh ooh  ooh Ooh ooh ooh  ooh And don’t extend your hand ’Cause I couldn’t move at all
