Southern Nights - The Generators

That girl’s a southern bell

Breaks hearts and she does it well

She will bring a man down

Right down to his knees

Born and raised in Tennessee

By her hard working daddy

She left the farm when

When she was just seventeen

Southern nights won’t be the same

Stars fall like drops of rain

Tears tumble right from her eyes

She’s crossing over the country line

Her new day has finally dawned

This beauty queens moving on

Country roads  so long

Started stripping in a Nashville bar

Went to Dallas and stripped some more

She took it all off to make her way to the top

Breaking hearts along the way

From Tallahassee to San Jose

Ent to California to try to get her big shot

Southern nights won’t be the same

Stars fall like drops of rain

The big cities out to drag her down

Chew her up and striped her out

Now shes missing now those jackson pines

Smokey mountains in the summer time

So far away from those southern nights

Rolling down the interstate

Not a moment a second to late

She’s fast and oh so mean

The trailer park beauty queen

In the distance she sees her name

Bright lights and dreams of fame

The bluegrass in Tennessee

Now that’s only a memory
