Southern Babylon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Starin' through a spider web where the windshield used to be
What's left of the dashboard, the smell of gasoline
I can just make out one neon light south off through the trees
My feet took over walkin' 'fore my mind caught up with me
When I walked in my tab was already open
My drink was poured and my cigarette was smokin'

[Chorus]
And somebody said, "Hey girl, where you been? Don't ya know I been waitin' for ya?
I've got a band up there been dyin' to play a little 'Devil Went Down to Georgia'
Rest that travelin' soul, looks like the road was long
Welcome to Southern Babylon"

[Verse 2]
I had to pull myself together and ask to use the phone
The waitress smiled a wicked grin, it sent a chill right to my bone
I said, "I need to call the tow truck, some way to move along"
She said, "Who you wanna call now that you've been called home?"

[Chorus]
She said, "Hey girl, where you been? Don't you know I been waitin' for ya?
You got a band up there just dyin' to play a little 'Hotel California'
And maybe it's not sinkin' in, but you'll learn to play along
Honey, you been gone since you walked into Southern Babylon"

[Verse 3]
"I'm not supposed to be here, bartender, don't you see?
I took a gig down in Atlanta and the brakes gave out on me"
She said, "We know all about ya, it's a little bit too late"
She handed me a guitar and pointed to the flames

[Chorus]
"Hey girl, where you been? Don't ya know I been waitin' for ya?
You got a band up there just dyin' to play a little 'Devil Went Down to Georgia'
Rest that travelin' soul, looks like the road was long
Welcome to Southern Babylon"

[Outro]
Southern Babylon
Welcome to Southern Babylon
Welcome home
