Charles Kelley - Southern Accents Lyrics






[Charles Kelley:]
There's a southern accent, where I come from
The young 'uns call it country
The Yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talkin'
But everything is done, with a southern accent
Where I come from

[Charles Kelley & Stevie Nicks:]
Now that drunk tank in Atlanta's
Just a motel room to me
Think I might go work Orlando
If them orange groves don't freeze
I got my own way of workin'
But everything is run, with a southern accent
Where I come from

For just a minute there I was dreaming
For just a minute it was all so real
For just a minute she was standing there, with me

There's a dream I keep having
Where my mama comes to me
And kneels down over by the window
And she says a prayer for me
I got my own way of prayin'
And every one's begun
With a southern accent
Where I come from

I got my own way of livin'
But everything gets done
With a southern accent
Where I come from
Where I come from

    I adore Charles' voice, and honestly, still love his original music even now that Lady A is back, but after recently being to a Lady Antebellum concert, I realised how much I love his covers too!

    "Southern Accents"

    There's a southern accent, where I come from
    The young 'uns call it country, the yankees call it dumb
    I got my own way of talking, but everything gets done
    With a southern accent, where I come from

    Now that drunk tank in Atlanta, is just a motel room to me
    Think I might go work Orlando, if them orange groves don't freeze
    Got my own way of working, but everything is run
    With a southern accent, where I come from

    For just a minute there I was dreaming
    For just a minute it was all so real
    For just a minute she was standing there, with me

    There's a dream I keep having, where my momma comes to me
    And kneels down over by the window, and says a prayer for me
    Got my own way of praying, but everyone's begun
    With a southern accent, where I come from

    Got my own way of living, but everything gets done
    With a southern accent, where I come from

  14. N.... B....

  18. K.... P....

    Beautiful voice, beautiful song, but as a "Yankee" or as I prefer, a Mainer, I don't consider southern accents dumb as said in the song....

  19. C.... ....

    This is a great song, but I prefer the album version with Stevie Nicks. You and Stevie should make a video together for this one.
