[Verse 1]
Maybe he's in Texas, maybe this town
Maybe Oklahoma plowin' up some ground
Southern Carolina, somewhere on the coast
Maybe Alabama drivin' through Montgomery
Right now, there's somethin' 'bout a boy from the South

[Verse 2]
Maybe he's in Florida, somewhere in the pines
Maybe on the delta throwin' out a line
Maybe he's in Georgia, starin' at the stars
Maybe Tennessee pickin' on a guitar
Right now, there's somethin'
'bout a boy from the south

[Chorus]
Yeah, the first time I felt it I was only 16
And he kissed me underneath the china berry tree
Said "Goodnight darlin'," with a sweet southern drawl
Man, I think I might just have to love them all
The boys from the South

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
Maybe in Kentucky, workin' in the mines
Maybe down in Little Rock, just to pass the time
Maybe he's somewhere in New Orleans
Livin' it up in the Big Easy
Right now, there's somethin' 'bout a boy from the South
[Chorus]
Yeah, the first time I felt it I was only 16
And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree
Said "Goodnight darlin'," with a sweet southern drawl
Man, I think I might just have to love them all
The boys from the South

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Maybe he's in Texas, maybe this town
My boys from the South
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh yeah, yeah!
