Summer in the South Songtext

von Patrick Davis

She's sleepin' in the back porch hammock in her white sun dress
Yeah Just watchin' her sleepin', Lord it steals my breathe
5 foot 5 with dark brown eyes and a smile you can't ignore
She thinks she's just Ginny from Virginia but she's so much more

To me she's a Sunday sermon makes me wanta be a better man
Sets me free like a truck tire turnin' down a dirt road in Alabam
And yes she moves like the breeze through the cotton with the hot sun beatin' down
And when she lays her kiss on my mouth it's like summer in the south

I remember the night we met 'neath that July moon
We were watchin' the fireworks and feelin' em' too
I thought I had all I could ever want, all I could need and nothing more
But I soon found she was everything I didn't know I was lookin' for

To me she's a Sunday sermon makes me wanta be a better man
Sets me free like a truck tire turnin' down a dirt road in Alabam
And yes she moves like the breeze through the cotton with the hot sun beatin' down
And when she lays her kiss on my mouth it's like summer in the south

Oooh yeah yeah

To me she's a Sunday sermon makes me wanta be a better man
Sets me free like a truck tire turnin' down a dirt road in Alabam
And yes she moves like the breeze through the cotton with the hot sun beatin' down
And when she lays her kiss on my mouth
Even when the snow is fallin' down
It's like summer in the south
Summer in the south
