McBryde, Ashley - Southern Babylon Lyrics
Starin' through a spiderweb 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
Somebody said "Hey girl, where you been? Doncha know I been waitin' for ya?
Got a band up there been dyin' to play a little 'Devil Went Down to Georgia'
Rest that trav'lin' soul, looks like the road was long
Welcome to Southern Babylon"
Had to pull myself together and ask to use the phone
The waitress smiled a wicked grin, it sent a chill right through 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?"
She said "Hey girl, where you been? Doncha 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"
"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
"Hey girl, where you been? Doncha 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 trav'lin' soul, looks like the road was long
Welcome to Southern Babylon"
Southern Babylon
Welcome to Southern Babylon
Welcome home

I love Miranda more, but I'm getting there...
Female vocalist suck. Should be againt the law.
Wow. Great job
Doesn’t make sense that Ashley McBryde is still scratching and clawing to get her just due in the music industry, yet people put garbage from Taylor Swift on the top of the heap...that girl sounds like a cartoon character/muppet singing compared to this! Awesome song-lyrics take you on a journey—voice is ridiculous...silky smooth and powerful 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Please keep standing behind that guitar, you make it special and you sure aren't typical, a real breath of fresh air.
LOVE this...classic ✍🏻
She's phenomenal! Lover her voice, her writing, her soul.

Come to Oklahoma @AshleyMcBryde So I can go! I've loved your badass songs and the 1st to e I saw you Eric had u on stage with Bible & .44! My dad is/was that song/man/so I change the the words to a Rifle & a .44! Thank you for all u do & never giving up because you've helped me so much! God Bless you Ms.Ashley
