Bonnie Blue Lyrics - John Anderson

You're the mother of the Southland 

Where I was born and bred 

You're in my heart and everythin' I do 

Yeah, you always have a place for me 

To rest my weary head 

And I will always love you, Bonnie Blue 

Bonnie Blue, is your Spanish moss still hangin'? 

Bonnie Blue, does your cotton still grow tall? 

Bonnie Blue, I've been wonderin' and a waitin' 

And it's hard to tell if anybody cares at all 

Bonnie Blue, I sure miss you 

Oh, Bonnie Blue, I'm sure missin' you 

Bonnie Blue, I can smell your Sunday dinner 

Bonnie Blue, your magnolias are in bloom 

Bonnie Blue, you know you always were a winner 

And remember there is someone here 

Who still loves you 

Bonnie Blue, I sure miss you 

Oh, Bonnie Blue, I'm sure missin' you 

You're the mother of the Southland 

Where I was born and bred 

You're in my heart and everythin' I do 

Yeah, you always have a place for me 

To rest my weary head 

And I will always love you, Bonnie Blue 

Oh, Bonnie Blue, is your tattered flag still flyin'? 

Bonnie Blue, yeah, they showed you wrong from right 

Bonnie Blue, I'm so sorry that I'm cryin' 

But there's not a lotta difference 

Between black and white 

Bonnie Blue, I sure miss you 

Oh, Bonnie Blue, I'm sure missin' you
