Southern Comfort Sing To Me

OH SOUTHERN COMFORT . . . Oh Southern Comfort sing to me the way that blues hussy Janice used to sing And just like that drink Janice Joplin what comfort to me and others you bring Your so young death and your husky voice songs reminisce deep into my soul Hope you are swinging up there in heaven - singing with a voice no less whole With that bottle of Southern Comfort in your hand that hides the behind pain One of the greatest Janis Joplin - oh I wished you could have stayed to remain Old age you could still have blasted out those songs like an angel gone wrong Then we would have followed you as we saw you mellow in your husky songs Oh Southern Comfort in our tears could you just bring some comfort to us all For that untimely exit Janis Joplin left us all to go and make that heavenly call Playing on my juke box all the songs reminiscing the good old times you bring Oh Southern Comfort sing to me the way that blues hussy Janice used to sing Indiana Shaw . . . -_- Tribute to Janis Joplin . . .
