Book Of Southern Rules
Writers: Kay Mott, James Kocian, Sandy Ramos
It's the law of the land, we drawl when we talk
& Saying “Yes sir and Yes Ma’am” is learned before we walk
Suppers are a big deal, it’s an all day long affair
& you don’t pass grandma’s pan-fried chicken till someone says the prayer
CHORUS
There’s a book of southern rules that reigns in the heart of Dixie
Kids learn real quick mouthin’ off to daddy's mighty risky
Down here in the Bible belt, we don’t dare miss Sunday school
'Round here, we all live by the 'Good Book' of southern rules
We don't call Triple A, if we end up in a ditch
There’s always an Uncle Bubba with a tow truck and a hitch
You don’t cuss in front of mama, you don't dip on a date
You don’t fish someone else’s favorite spot out on the lake
CHORUS#2
There’s a book of southern rules that reigns in the heart of Dixie
If you ain't drinkin' sweet tea, it better be Tennessee Whiskey
Down here in the Bible belt, you don’t dare miss Sunday school
‘Round here we live by the ‘Good Book’ of southern rules
BRIDGE
We’ll either have a rebel flag or a gun rack on the back of our 4 wheel drives
You’ll either see a Georgia Peach or an Alabama belle on the shotgun side
Chorus
There’s a book of southern rules that reigns in the heart of Dixie
Serving biscuits without gravy and grits is mighty risky
Down here in the Bible belt, you don’t dare miss Sunday school
‘Round here we live by the ‘Good Book’of southern rules
