Crystal Gayle - That’s What I Like About the South lyrics

Take me back to Alabamy
Take me to see my dear old Granny
Fryin' eggs and cookin' hammy
That's what I like about the South

There you can make no mistakey
And your nerves are never shaky
I used to taste that layer cakey
That's what I like about the South

She's got baked beans and candied yams
Sugar-cubed Virginia hams
Cellar full of those berry jams
That's what I like about the South
I like corn bread and burned beans
Ham hots and turnip greens
Party grind down at New Orleans
That's what I like about the South

You can poise on with all thе news
Bought bear coat and brought down shoes
I'll tiе it up as you can do
And that's what I like about the South

There's a place down south called
An old town and it ain't no city
It's pretty, sure it's pretty

Take me back to Alabamy
Take me to see my dear old Granny
Fryin' eggs and cookin' hammy
That's what I like about the South
