[Intro]
(One, two, three) Woo
(One, two, three) Haha, mmm
(One, two, three) Home is where the heart is, yeah
(One, two, three)
(One, two, three)

[Verse 1]
The South is where I'm from, used to waking up by dawn
Sweet early morning sun creeping through my window
I can hear the radio, Frankie Beverly is on
Crooning my favorite song, "Southern Girl"

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm slipping back in time, mmm
When I was free and young, and life was so much fun
Puts a smile back on my face, well, well
The brightest memory will always be with me

[Chorus]
(Back down memory lane) Oh yeah, the way it used to be
Kickin' it with my friends and all of my family
Oh, I wanna go back (Back down mеmory lane)
I had no worries
Not a care in thе world, I was so happy, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
College days were cool, Prairie View was the school
Singing in the marching band, we went hand in hand
Ooh, the family reunion, we drove a country mile
Sharing love, togetherness and smiles

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm slipping back in time, mhm
When I was free and young, and life was so much fun
Puts a smile back on my face, uh-huh
Those sweet, sweet memories will always be with me

[Chorus]
(Back down memory lane) Yeah, yeah, yeah, the way it used to be
When I was kickin' it with my friends and all of my family
Oh, I wanna go back (Back down memory lane)
When I had no worries
Not a care in the world, I was so happy, woohoo
(Back down memory lane) Uh, I wanna go, I wanna go
I wanna go back, take me (Back down memory lane)
I wanna go back, I wanna go
Oh, I wanna go back, I wanna go back (Back down memory lane)

[Outro]
I wanna go home
(Back down memory lane)
(Back down memory lane)
(Back down memory lane)
(Back down memory lane)
