[Verse 1]

I was born, I was blessed

Right place, right time, I guess

Ain't no good reason why I left

Except to run and roam

Would you take me back and take me in?

Let me be your child again

Kiss my cheek, forgive my sins

And let me call you home

Oh, I may stay here for a while

[Chorus]

If I'm gonna fly, I'm gonna fly down South

I'm gonna drive, I'm gonna find a small town

South is where my momma lives

Where my little piece of heaven is

If I'm gonna dream, I'm gonna dream your face

If I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go to that place

And figure out what I lost and found

Down South

[Verse 2]

Religion and me don't always agree, but I sure love my maker

Sounds just like a gospel song when I sing my little prayer

Got rocks in my shoes, holes in my soul

I'm covered in dirt from head to toe

From walking along this winding road that brought me back to here

Oh, I may stay here for a while

[Chorus]

If I'm gonna fly, I'm gonna fly down South

I'm gonna drive, I'm gonna find a small town

South is where my momma lives

Where my little piece of heaven is

If I'm gonna dream, I'm gonna dream your face

If I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go to that place

And figure out what I lost and found

Down South

[Interlude]

Ooh, na-na-na-na-na-na

Ooh, na-na-na

Oh, I may stay here for a while

[Chorus]

If I'm gonna fly, I'm gonna fly down South

I'm gonna drive, I'm gonna find a small town

South is where my momma lives

Where my little piece of heaven is

If I'm gonna dream, I'm gonna dream your face

If I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go to that place

And figure out what I lost and found

Down South

Down South

[Interlude]

Ooh, na-na-na-na-na-na

Ooh, na-na-na

[Bridge]

Down South, born and raised

Down South, where I learned to pray

Down South, is where I'll stay

Down South

Down South, born and raised

Down South, where I learned to pray

Down South, is where I'll stay

Down South

[Outro]

Rocks in my shoes, holes in my soul

I'm covered in dirt from head to toe
