New South

Last fall we elected the man from plains
 and there was lots of talk about a great big chance
 but the Atlanta Braves still loose to many games
 and the new south thank God is still the same
 old Nashville's still got a song and dance
 and the Florida girls still wear no underpants
 and we all get drunk at the football games
 cause the new south thank God is still the same
 The new south is still the same and I'm so glad of it
 I don't want no little ol danish rolls I must have ham and grits
 and my woman does look good in her t-shirt standin in the georgia rain
 and the new south thank god is still the same
 Now my old grandaddy he still farms the land
 and down in miami they voted in the all over tan
 and I'm hooked on those Carolina dreams
 and the new south thank God is still the same
 Well my boston girl she's read in the New York Times
 that it was very chic now to speak southern lines
 Though she sound kinda funny when she says ya'll come agane
 hey the new south thank god is still the same
 The new south is still the same and I'm damn glad of it
 I don't want no little ol danish rolls I must have ham and grits
 and my boston girl says she likes it lovin on the river bank
 hey the new south thank god is still the same
 and this boston girl says she likes it down here lovin by the river bank
 with ol hank
 cause the new south thank god is still the same ya'll come again
