Southern Flavor

Music by Bill Monroe, Bill Monroe Music, BMI
Lyrics by Guy Stevenson & Dwayne Mize, Sounds Of Heartland Music, BMI / A Hit Is A Hit Publishing, BMI

Missouri mules pullin' double shovels
Corn blowin' in the breeze
Cotton growin' down on the delta
Dixie I hear you callin' me

Chorus: Lord, I love that southern flavor
Heart and soul and hospitality
I've tasted life this wide world over
But no place ever meant as much to me

Honeysuckle bloomin' in the springtime
Smell of sweet magnolia trees
Church bells ringin' on a Sunday morning
A country boy down on his knees

Chorus: Lord, I love that southern flavor
Heart and soul and hospitality
I've tasted life this wide world over
But no place ever meant as much to me

Chorus: Lord, I love that southern flavor
Heart and soul and hospitality
I've tasted life this wide world over
But no place ever meant as much to me
