Palm trees sway on these spring days Don't care what I forgot Got my dreams locked up and my mind's at ease I ain't nothing I'm not The reasons I'm out here Because I was just born here So don't you question me Well I'll do what I can to help you understand There's more than what you see Out here where the cypress grows Full moon comes and the full moon goes Southern sweet Time is slow Oh it's got a hold on me Oh you got to hold on Being easy don't mean it's broken Just lay them judgements down Well I ain't perfect I might drink too much But I got my family around We make it through years and it tears at the seams But together here we stand The good lord is gracious I know you're patient You make me a better man Out here where the cypress grows Full moon comes and the full moon goes Southern sweet Time is slow Oh it's got a hold on me Oh you got to hold on Out here where the cypress grows Full moon comes and the full moon goes Southern sweet Time is slow Oh it's got a hold on me Out here where the cypress grows Full moon comes and the full moon goes Southern sweet Time is slow Oh it's got a hold on me
