Southern Pride
Pride, one thing they taught us in south
With everything we do all way the cooking
No wonder everyone wants live taste of tradition
Passed down generations it make mouth's water
The morals of man strongly respected
Southern pride, where your word is bond
And people are laid back and different
We believe in whooping that ass if needed
Working sun up, sun down the farms needed tend
Country way of life without big city living
Staying free do not disgrace my flag
It's not a racist thing but of honor I stand
To myself as I do my country it not touch ground
Racism isn't color thing, hatred of fellow man
Southern pride, last name was one's integrity
It's milk gravy/biscuits, grits on the griddle, sweet tea
Knowing a man's worth by his teachings
Standing tall in ourselves, where we come from
Its southern thing, pride of Carolina's I'm from
Where justice once ruled, independence was fought
But truth, liberty, freedom fall to grace of man
Let not die past, prosper our experience
Southern pride, to old know any better
To young give a dump about your feelings
Straight up!!!
