Southern Belle Lyrics - Elliott Smith - Elliott Smith

Killing a southern belle is all you know how to do 

that and give other people hell 

it's what they expect from you too 

but I wouldn't have you how you are 

I don't wanna walk around 

I don't even wanna breathe 

I live in a southern town 

where all you can do is grit your teeth 

but I wouldn't have you how you are 

How come you're not ashamed of what you are? 

and sorry that you're the one she got? 

Ain't nobody looking now 

nobody nothing's said 

no one's about to shout 

nobody's seeing red 

but I wouldn't have you how are
