I know most of the dudes who teach in Korea are Canadians, Yankees, and Euro-Trash.

Nevertheless, what is your favorite Southern song?

Mine is They Call Me the Breeeze by Lynard Skynard.

It's got the piano, the guitar, and the horns.

A far second is Flirting with Disaster by Molly Hatchet.

I know you boyz are clueless. Do you have a favorite Southern song?

Pick a Bale Of Cotton.

It's a nice traditional song that highlights a long history the south is still proud of.

Is 'Lazybones' a Southern song?

Lazybones, sleepin in the sun....how you spect to get your days work done?
You cant get your days work done......sleepin in the noon day sun

Lazybones, layin in the shade....how you gonna get your cornmeal made?
You cant get no cornmeal made....sleepin in that evening shade

When taters need sprayin, I bet you keep prayin
The bugsll fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin I bet you keep wishin
Them fish dont grab your line

Lazybones, loafin all the day.....how you spect to make a dime that way?
You wont make no dime that way.....loafin in the shade all day



If not, I'm going with Ludacris - Southern Hospitality

Ah
Cadillac grills
Cadillac bills
Check out the oil
My Cadillac spills
Matter of fact
Candy Paint
Cadillac kills
So check out the hoes my Cadillac fills
20 inch wide
20 inch high
Hold on to my 20 inch ride
20 inch thighs make 20 inch eyes
Hoping for American 20 inch pies
Pretty ass clothes
Pretty ass toes
Oh how I love these pretty ass hoes
Pretty ass high class anything goes
Catch them in the club throwing pretty ass 'bows
Long John draws
Long John stalls
Any stank puss
Makes my long John Pause
Women on the cell making long John Calls
And if they like to juggle get long John�s balls

Chorus

All my players in the house that could ride the bar
And the balling ass niggas with the candy car
If you a pimp and you know you don�t love them hoes
Then when you get on the floor
(Nigga throw dem bows!)
All my women in the house if you chasing cash
And you got some big *beep* with a mathin ass
With your fly ass boots or your open toes
When you get on the floor
(Nigga hold them hoes)

Verse 2

Dirty south mind blown
Dirty south bread
Cat fish fired up dity south FED
Sleeping in a cockpick dirty south bed
Dirty south girls
Give me dirty south head
Hand me down flip flops
Hand me down socks
Hand me down drug dealers
Hand me down rocks
Hand me down a fiftty pack
Switch a sweet box
And goodfella rich nigga hand me down stocks
Mouth full of platinum
Mouth full of gold
40 glock cal
Keep your mouth on hold
Lie through your teeth
You could find your mouth cold
And rip out your tongue cause
What your mouth told
Sweat for the lemonade
Sweat for the tea
Sweat from the hot sauce
Sweat from the bleed
You could sweat from a burn in a third degree
And if you sweat in your sleep
Then you sweat from me

Chorus

All my players in the house that could ride the bar
And the balling ass niggars with the candy car
If you a pimp and you know you don�t love them hoes
Then when you get on the floor
(Niggar hold them hoes)
All my women in the house if you chasing cash
And you got some big *beep* with a batchin ass
With your fly ass boots or your open toes
When you get on the floor
(Niggar hold them hoes)

Verse 3

Hit by stars
Hit by cars
Drunk off the liquor
Getting hit by bars
Keep your gun close
Cause she hit by far
Hit by the neptunes
Hit by guitars
Afro picks
Afro chicks
I let my soul blow
From my afro dick
Grab it out the hat
Pulling afro tricks
Afro America
Afro thick
Overall country
Overall cheese
Overall Georgia
We overall clean
Southern hospitality
Or overall mean
Overall triple
Overall beans
Thugged out niggas
Wearing thugged out chains
Thugged out blocks
Playing thugged out games
All black tinted up
Thugged out range
BTP stay doing thugged out things

Chorus

All my players in the house that could ride the bar
And the balling ass niggas with the candy car
If you a pimp and you know you don�t love them hoes
Then when you get on the floor
(Niggar hold them hoes)
All my women in the house if you chasing cash
And you got some big *beep* with a batchin ass
With your fly ass boots or your open toes
When you get on the floor
(Niggar hold them hoes)

'cause I don't carry me no load.
They call me the breeze
'cause I don't carry me no load.
Might go down to Memphis
Might go down to Georgia, I don't know

Hey, get with the plan, little boy.

But I'm Scottish/Irish old school.

So I will accept your answer.

Go Rangers.

If Heaven Ain't A Lot Like Dixie... Hank Williams Jr.

f heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home



I was one of the chosen few, to be born in Alabam'
I'm just alike my daddy's son, I'm proud of who I am
I went through a lot of good women, shook old Jim Beam's hand
If I never see the pearly gates, I've walked through the promised land



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry, like they do in Tennessee
Just send me to hell or New York City, it would be about the same to me



I've got wild honey trees and crazy little weeds, growin' around my shack
These dusty roads ain't streets of gold, but I'ma happy right where I'm at
All these pretty little southern belles are a country boy's dream
They ain't got wings or halos, but they're sure looking good to me



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry, like they do down in Tennessee
Just send me to hell or New York City, it would be about the same to me



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home



If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home



If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry, like they do in Tennessee
Just send me to hell or New York City, it would be about the same to me

A Country Boy Can Survive -- Hank Williams, Jr.

********

The preacher man says it�s the end of time
And the Mississippi River she�s a goin� dry
The interest is up and the Stock Markets down
And you only get mugged
If you go down town

I live back in the woods, you see
A woman and the kids, and the dogs and me
I got a shotgun rifle and a 4-wheel drive
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
Ain�t too many things these ole boys can�t do
We grow good ole tomatoes and homemade wine
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

Because you can�t starve us out
And you cant makes us run
Cause one-of- �em old boys raisin ole shotgun
And we say grace and we say Ma�am
And if you ain�t into that we don�t give a damn

We came from the West Virginia coalmines
And the Rocky Mountains and the and the western skies
And we can skin a buck; we can run a crop line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
And I�d send him some homemade wine

But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For 43 dollars my friend lost his life
Id love to spit some beechnut in that dudes eyes
And shoot him with my old 45
Cause a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

Cause you can�t starve us out and you can�t make us run
Cause one-of- �em old boys raisin ole shotgun
And we say grace and we say Ma�am
And if you ain�t into that we don�t give a damn

We�re from North California and south Alabam
And little towns all around this land
And we can skin a buck; we can run a crop line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

"Melissa" by The Allman Brothers.

Well, basically anything by The Allman Brothers.

There are lots of good groups with a Southern sound, but lots of these bands come from New York, Ohio, or other points north. Can't really call them Southern songs.

edit: oh, I like "Green Grass And High Tides Forever" by The Outlaws.

1) Fortunate Son-Creedance Clearwater Revival

2) Black Velvet-Alannah Myles (this is a good song to play if you want a) do a strip tease or b) so some really slow dancing with a drink in hand)

3) Hippy Hippy Shake or Keep Your Hands to Yourself-Georgia Sattelites (these are just fun songs)
