Cheap Trick - Southern Girls Lyrics






I've been north,
I've been east to the california beach
There's only one place i know where to find you
And all you southern girls got a way with your words
And you show it
You say hump and i'll jump
You say go and i'll know
Waste no time getting
So close to you
And you'll never run way
When you find out why i wanted to find you

Ooh baby need some brand new shoes
Get out on the street
You got nothing to lose
You rock me and your crazy
And everyone says it, yeah yeah
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose

I've been up i've been down
I've been weak i've been strong
But i never met someone like you
And you'll never run away
When you find why i wanted to find you
You say hump and i'll jump
You say go and i'll know
Waste no time getting
So close to you
All you southern girls
Got a way with your words
And you show it

Ooh baby need some brand new shoes
Get out on the street
You got nothing to lose
You rock me and your crazy
And everyone says it, yeah yeah
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose

You think this boy, he loves you
Southern girls
You make it hard oh, so hard
I've been north, i've been east to the california beach
There's only one place i know where to find you
And all you southern girls got a way with your words
And you show it

Ooh baby need some brand new shoes
Get out on the street
You got nothing to lose
You rock me and your crazy
And everyone says it, yeah yeah

Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls, you got nothing to lose
Southern girls
Southern girls
Southern girls

    Never liked this band. I don't know why. Maybe it was the Punk scene was really hot and I found these kats to being the same old, Boston, Ted Nugent crap..I do like this hit.

  10. C.... R....

  18. D.... L....

    I keep thinking that now that AMV's are uncool, someone can finally make a tribute to Osaka from Azumanga Daioh with this song. Osaka is best girl.

  30. L.... P....

    The Longshot?

    L.... P....

    Kyle Osterhout I found this song from The Longshot. I had no idea it was a cover

    L.... P....

    Correct sir

  31. c.... m....

    well, apparently I've been confused about this song for 45 years. it's about southern Canadian girls that have issues witn footwear just like girls in Georgia who are broke.

  32. r.... ....

    Ooooooo!!!

  33. D.... C....

    Their best song...IMHO

  39. s.... e....

    Easely their best song!

    s.... e....

    steven eichele EASILY

    s.... e....

    Well surrenders pretty damn good to! Hell so is downed!

    s.... e....

    “Easily”? That’s a pretty bold statement. Really, it’s all subjective, but to me, there are at least 17 “best” Cheap Trick songs. Nearly all of them are from the first three albums.

    s.... e....

    Huh ??? Um, no.

  40. S.... B....

    very under rated,

  41. M.... W....

    Quite possibly the most underrated band ever. Love these guys

    M.... W....

    woodstockbeliever1 they're idiots if they've never heard of cheap trick

    M.... W....

    @woodstockbeliever1When he made that comment, they were not in the Rock and Roll HoF, so it would have made some sense then.

    M.... W....

    they were huge! but I agree. should have been huger. just like my wife says.

    M.... W....

    people only know there hits

  42. A.... F....

    The song is actually about southern ontario girls in Canada.....probably some hot chicks from London used to rock their balls on tour in the 70's

  43. R.... G....

    Jim Mastersonvery much a Big star vibe on this track,yeah,the vibe is September Gurls written by Alex Chilton!He wrote a little diity called Jesus Christ that probably helped on St. Patties when he was cutting the grass,Alex was way cooll!..

  44. R.... G....

    Alex Chilton had the "southern girls" first september girls anyone?having said that babe I need some brand new shoes,is there a Vans outlet round here?Near the Piggly Wiggly at the SanDestin resort?....

  45. P.... P....

    Yeah...just yeah.

  46. J.... P....

    home town boys :)

  47. D.... R....

    Bun E. Carlos at his finest

  48. D.... ....

    This song should be arrested by the 'Catchy Police' Was this a single? Robin Zander is the best Rock/pop Vocalist ever. I am dumbfounded at his amazing vocal range, some Cheap trick songs are impossible to sing along to because of it.

    D.... ....

    I'm more amazed that he still sounds great at his current age compared to others singers around his age.

    D.... ....

    +Daz Whovian Catchy Police haha nice!

    D.... ....

    Yeah, its a gift, I had an even better range when i was young, but yeah now forget it, haha! I didn't look as good as he did when I was young either, another thing you need to make it haha!

    D.... ....

    GrayWolf - you said it. I just saw them a little over a week ago, for something like the 15th time since 1979, and Zander still just kills it. He couldn’t quite hit the super-high notes on the bridge in ‘If You Want My Love’... the part that goes “There’s a hole in my heart, in my heeeaart” bit... but really, what singer in their late 60’s can? He’s still one of the top 3 greatest vocalists in the history of rock and roll, hands-down.

  49. F.... B....

    woot!!!! no ad

  50. A.... ....

    Kewel Jewel!

    Very much a Big Star vibe to this one. Great song!

  54. r.... ....

    Love-Love-Love This song! Had a big crush on Robin when I was little. I can still see why.!

    r.... ....

    rick1toknow me too

  55. t.... ....

    0:15 -- Sounds like the guitar effect from Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit in the Sky"... Besides the single & album versions, they've also released the demo from 1975.  I put all 3 versions in my CT playlist. Thanks for the upload!

  56. J.... L....

    from wiki

    "The lyrics were inspired by women the band met in Canada, north of their Illinois roots; it is actually about girls from Southern Canada.[4] However, using the phrase "Southern Canadian Girls" in the hook didn't sound good to Nielsen, so he just left it as "Southern Girls."

  57. s.... ....

    The absolute FIRST CC song that hooked me! I like 'em all {girls that is}.

  58. T.... S....

    the best song to depict american sexy, long leg, blond,and smiling treasures we call Southern Girls. 
    Thank God we have this young lady's, and we men should buy all the shoes they need. 

  59. D.... R....

    Living in Florida, I can attest to the fact the southern girls are smoking.

    D.... R....

    @Daniel Rios How do you know they didn't just move from the NOrth? the accent, right?

    D.... R....

    Except this song is actually about girls in Southern Canada, not the Southern United States. Look it up.
