Southern States Lyrics - Singles - The Essex Green

I have seen the moonlight 

On the shoulder of the midnight road 

On the county fire 

I've been running for hours 

Now my feet are broke, I haven't spoke 

I gotta mind to pray 

For the people in southern states 

For to keep it underground 

For your secrets you know I've got a yearning 

From my head on down 

For the autumn around the bend 

For to carry over seas 

For the person you know I'm searching for 

In the city streets 

I could hear the landslide 

When you asked to stay, I drove you away 

To the outer bank 

Since I've been counting the treetops 

Listen all the day for your wheels to say 

How could I be so wrong? 

For the people in southern states 

For to keep it underground 

For your secrets you know I've got a yearning 

From my head on down 

For the autumn around the bend 

For to carry over seas 

For the person you know I've been searching for 

In the city streets
