Now I ain't sayin' them LA ladies don't know what they're doin'
And I been in love with New York City a time or two
I had some Seattle coffee, some Chicago wind
Some Kansas wheat fields I'd love to see again
But the fireflies play where the cattails grow
And them southern girls, they talk nice and slow with

Kisses sweeter than Tupelo honey
Little bit crazy like New Orleans
Memphis blue and Daytona sunny
Soft as cotton in some cut-off jeans
Don't you know,
Ain't nothing in the whole wide world
Like a southern girl

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Hazel eyes and golden curls)
(Put on a country song)
(Will dance all night long)

A southern girl's mama probably taught her how a lady should act
But a southern girl's probably got a barn somewhere reared out back
She'll get a little hay in her hair, her thighs in the mud
She's been caught in the rain, and washed in the blood
Likes jiggers in her coke, takes a little sip,
Comes over to me with them sunburned lips and them

Kisses sweeter than Tupelo honey
Little bit crazy like New Orleans
Memphis blue and Daytona sunny
Soft as cotton in some cut-off jeans
Don't you know,
Ain't nothing in the whole wide world
Like a southern girl

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Hazel eyes and golden curls)
(Put on a country song)
(Will dance all night long)

If you've ever seen savannah heat up when the stars come out
Well then fellows come on, you know what I'm talkin' about

Kisses sweeter than Tupelo honey
Little bit crazy like New Orleans
Memphis blue and Daytona sunny
Soft as cotton in some cut-off jeans
Don't you know,
Ain't nothing in the whole wide world
Like a southern girl

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Put on a country song)

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Hazel eyes and golden curls)
(Will dance all night long)

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Hazel eyes and golden curls)
(Put on a country song)
(Will dance all night long)

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Hazel eyes and golden curls)
(Put on a country song)
(Will dance all night long)

(Southern girl rock my world)
(Hazel eyes and golden curls)
(Put on a country song)
(Will dance all night long)
