Farewell my sweet
Well the time that was comin
The road has begun to move beneath my feet
Good things come to an end
Well I hope through the pain, the heartache and strain
We can still remain friends

Somethin about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a mississippi mornin
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
Somethin bout a southern girl

You're a soft melody
Well I swear that I heard from a lost mockingbird stuck up in a tree
We got a lot goin on
Even though I'm not here
Please don't shed any tears for me day when I'm gone

Somethin about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a mississippi mornin
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
Somethin bout a southern girl

I never meant to leave you lonely
It was only in your mind
Girl, I never meant to leave you lonely
It was only a matter of time

Somethin about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a Mississippi mornin
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
Somethin bout a southern girl
