Charlie Farley – Southern Boy Lyrics

Chorus
Southern bred, Southern raised
Southern to the bone.
Ride the lane, on this one lane,
Just follow me home.

Alone but I’m not lonely
It’s the only way I know.
Cuz I’m a Southern boy
Fishin’, huntin’ boy,
Ain’t scared o’ nothin’ boy
Yeah that’s how it goes.

Verse 1
Give me a gun
And let this hound dog hunt. (Let’s go)
Let me have fun until my time comes (yeah)
Cuz I love putting this drag king
On a duckett ride. (ride)
Cranking ditches in home. (home)
So I’m bended knees thanking God
For letting me be from where I’m from.

I’m a Southern boy
With a whole lotta chores.
And I’m tunin’ out the noise
Who knows who don’t understand.
That I’m just a simple man
With a little land
Who you can disagree with
But best believe it
Don’t give a ****.

Now I’m too stuck in my wasted change (change)
But it ain’t because I can’t (can’t)
No, I’d do it if I wanted to (to)
But I don’t, therefore I ain’t (oh)
Gimme that stiff drink
In a truck in the hills with chip paint
Look calm on the rearview and a full tank
Yeah, I think that’s paradise. (That’s right, uh)

Chorus
Southern bred, Southern raised
Southern to the bone.
Ride the lane, on this one lane,
Just follow me home.

Alone but I’m not lonely
It’s the only way I know.
Cuz I’m a Southern boy
Fishin’, huntin’ boy,
Ain’t scared o’ nothin’ boy
Yeah that’s how it goes.

Verse 2
Yeah, I’ve been stretched like barbwire
Left out to dry, (oh)
Dust and gas, thrown in the fire
But now you see it in my eyes. (look)
You ain’t never gonna stop me.
Call me rocky, I may be *****
But it’s prob’ly from bein’ born
Through the ********
And been hardened in like concrete. (oh)

I’m country, a sweet tee, sweet peas,
Or string beans.
And honestly, without the nukes,
There ain’t no tellin’ where I would be.

I’m proudest
Anybody could be in my home (home)
Cuz, we’re told a whole lot
About left from right (right)
Up from down, and then right from wrong.
I’d rather roll along
Than roll with a whole bunch of folks
And feel alone. (yeah)
Boy I’m…

Chorus
Southern bred, Southern raised
Southern to the bone.
Ride the lane, on this one lane,
Just follow me home.

Alone but I’m not lonely
It’s the only way I know.
Cuz I’m a Southern boy
Fishin’, huntin’ boy,
Ain’t scared o’ nothin’ boy
Yeah that’s how it goes.
