"Favourite Southern Song" is a little ambiguous; does "La Cucaracha" count?
In all seriousness, I'd have to go with "Tuesday's Gone". |
Gah, I love "Tuesday's Gone." But the Allman Brothers are such a quintessential Southern group. My former English professor was friends with them and took a bus of our class up to see them perform in NYC--they got to stay after the show and chill with the band. Tickets were $80...I didn't go. My dad was disappointed in me. |

I don't know the artist, maybe Tim Macgraw. The lyrics are like:
I pulled into a shopping center,
saw a little boy wrapped around the legs of his mother.
Like ice cream melting they embraced,
years of bad decisions running down her face.
I wanted to tell them it would okay,
but I just got in my suburban and I, drove away.
I don't know why they say grown men can't cry ...
I quite like the voice of the country singer in the urban context. |

I Walk the Line by Johnny Cash.....
although it's not really "southern"...
It's Kentuckian, a whole'nother, and imho, slightly better  |
Johnny Cash was from Arkansas.
