[Verse 1]
Down in the swamps of Florida is where I feel right at home
Hangin' with my Seminole brothers we where trying to roll the bones
Drove all night in the pouring rain just to make a dime
Headed on up to New Orleans selling prayers and shine
[Chorus]
Got my laid back living and rainy nights
My sweet street justice shining on my life
I'm a southern native born and bred when I die by God I'll be southern dead
[Verse 2]
I got a suitcase full of pictures
Reflections of my youth
Music is my saving grace
My guitar just told the truth
Daddy was a Native American man, momma was a southern belle
Memphis blues and old tattoos things I know so well
[Chorus]
Like that laid back living and rainy nights
My sweet street justice shining on my life
I'm a southern native born and bred when I die by God I'll be southern dead
[Verse 3]
We're all celebrated
We're southern to the bone
Texas to Carolina I'll take 95 back home
I see the light of the Georgia moon telling me where to go
Hear the call of the voodoo child, politician money man
Leave alone our sacred land
[Chorus]
And laid back living and rainy nights
My sweet street justice shining on my life
I'm a southern native born and bred
Southern native born and bred
I'm a southern native born and bred when I die by God I'll be southern dead
Southern native born and bred southern native born and bred
