It’s the Same Old South

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's the same old South It's a regular children's Heaven Where they don't start to work till they're seven It's the same old South [Verse 2] It's the same old South With those old-fashioned get-togethers Colonel, pass me the tar and the feathers It's the same old South [Chorus] There's no gate to stop you When you stopped off to bid the folks hello There's no gate to stop you For it dropped off twenty or thirty yеars ago [Verse 3] Honey, shut my mouth Let the Northеrners keep Niagra We'll stick to our Southern pellagra It's the same old South [Chorus] There's no gate to stop you When you stopped off to bid the folks hello There's no gate to stop you For it dropped off twenty or thirty years ago [Verse 4] Honey, hush my mouth While the bloodhounds that once chased Liza Chased a poor CIO organizer It's the same old South
