Dwight Yoakam - South Of Cincinnatti Lyrics
(d. yoakam)Chorus:F you ever get south of cincinnati down where the dogwood trees growIf you ever get south of the mason dixon to the home you left so long agoIf you ever get south of the ohio river down where dixieland beginsIf you ever get south of cincinnati Ill be yours againShe pulled the letter from the pages of her bibleAnd a rose pressed inside the book of lukeFor fourteen years shed write each day but keep it hiddenRefused to even speak his name, but still she wroteChorus:If you ever get south of cincinnati down where the dogwood trees growIf you ever get south of the mason dixon to the home you left so long agoIf you ever get south of the ohio river down where dixieland beginsIf you ever get south of cincinnati Ill be yours againAt a cold gray apartment in chicagoA cigarette drowns inside a glass of ginHe lies there drunk, but it dont matter drunk or soberHell never read the words that pride wont let her sendChorus:If you ever get south of cincinnati down where the dogwood trees growIf you ever get south of the mason dixon to the home you left so long agoIf you ever get south of the ohio river down where dixieland beginsIf you ever get south of cincinnati Ill be yours againThen Ill be yours again
