Highway Headin' South

Lyrics

Oh, on a highway headed south, somewhere to Dixie
 Where the cotton blooms in the spring, and the snow don't fly
 I'm gonna rest these chillin' bones, in the Southern sunshine
 And live where the weather's warm, until I die
 North Dakota, you got my better years
 Montana, you got five years of my life
 But the earth's sub-zero wind, will never touch me again
 A Southern girl can't live, on snow and ice
 Oh, on a highway headed south, somewhere to Dixie
 Where the cotton blooms in the spring, and the snow don't fly
 I'm gonna rest these chillin' bones, in the Southern sunshine
 And live where the weather's warm, until I die
 When I cross the Dixie line, I'll throw away my coat
 And my goose-down underwear, will have to go
 I'll never live again, where the weather chills you, to the bone
 I'm tired of livin', like an Eskimo
 Oh, on a highway headed south, somewhere to Dixie
 Where the cotton blooms in the spring, and the snow don't fly
 I'm gonna rest these chillin' bones, in the Southern sunshine
 And live where the weather's warm, until I die
 Oh, on a highway headed south, somewhere to Dixie
 Where the cotton blooms in the spring, and the snow don't fly
 I'm gonna rest these chillin' bones, in the Southern sunshine
 And live where the weather's warm, until I die
 Oh, on a highway headed south, somewhere to Dixie
 Where the cotton blooms in the spring, and the snow don't fly
