HEAD SOUTH Head south in the morning, just take off with no warning Tell your boss you need a change of scene Head south if you're feeling your homesick heart is reeling And get yourself a bowl of butterbeans Anywhere east of the Rio Grande Gets you a cane pole in your hand Fry a mess of fish up on the bank Cross that Mason-Dixon line, leave your cares and worries behind Sit out under a willow tree and think Head south, are you listening You don't know what you're missing From Virginia shores to the Gulf of Mexico Head south to Kentucky, Blue Ridge Mountains if you're lucky From the Florida Keys to the banks of the Ohio You will feel the heart of Texas swing Dixieland down in New Orleans Delta blues on the side of the riverbank Country soul down in Tennessee And that mountain music's all right by me Hot jambalaya you're in the land of Hank Head south God amighty Ain't the thought of it exciting Crab cakes cornbread crawfish and barbeque Head south, horn of plenty, for the few and the many All the south is missing man is you
