Southern Loving

I’ve been loved in Cincinnati Evansville and St Paul

There’s a gal in the Windy City I can’t forget about

But if you want to love like you ain’t had love go south south south

Southern loving take that southern loving every time

And there’s a nurse I know in Memphis got love for a middle name

If she ever gets her hands on you it’s shame shame shame

Southern loving take that southern loving every time

Now everybody’s heard about that southern hospitality

But that ain’t why the sunny south has got a hold on me

There’s a teacher down in Dallas I ain’t seen in quite sometime

And there’s a gal in Bogalusa just can’t love enough

I’ll tell you about her with just three words she’s tough tough tough

Southern loving take that southern loving every time

Now everybody’s heard about that southern hospitality

But that ain’t why the sunny south has got a hold on me

Southern loving take that southern loving every time
