Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

Let's go back to Alabamy

Let's go see my dear old Mammy

She's fryin' eggs and boiling hammy

That's what I like about the south

Now there you can make no mistakey

Where those nerves are never shaky

You should taste her layer cakey

That's what I like about the south

She's got baked ribs and candied yams

Those sugar-cured Virginia hams

Basement full of those berry jams

An' that's what I like about the south

Hot corn bread and turnip greens

Ham hocks and butter beans

Logging down that in New Orleans

That's what I like about the south

Way down where the cane grows tall

Down where they say y'all

Walk on in with that southern drawl

'Cause that's what I like about the south

Did I tell you 'bout the place called doo wah diddy

It ain't no town and it ain't no city

Neal my old shoe is put that dude

Wah diddy

Every time I pass your door

You act like you don't want me no more

Why don't you shake that head and sigh

And I'll go walkin' and by

I didn't come here to sympathize

And I'm not here to criticize

Don't tell me those no-good lies

That a lyin' gal like you can dispise

That's what I like about the south
