Southern Accents Lyrics - Southern Accents - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

There's a southern accent, where I come from 

The young'uns call it country 

The yankees call it dumb 

I got my own way of talkin' 

But everything is done. with a southern accent 

Where I come from- 

Now that drunk tank in Atlanta's 

Just a motel room to me 

Think I might go work Orlando 

If them orange groves don't freeze 

I got my own way of workin' 

But everything is run. with a southern accent 

Where I come from-

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

For just a minute there I was dreaming 

For just a minute it were all so real 

For just a minute she was standing there. with me 

There's a dream I keep having 

Where my mama comes to me 

And she kneels down over by the window 

And says a prayer for me 

I got my own way of prayin' 

But everyone's begun 

With a southern accent 

Where I come from- 

I got my own way of livin' 

But everything gets done 

With southern accent 

Where I come from
