Won’t you take me back south
G C

The boy he was a drifter
A farmer and a singer
He had stories to tell
But he kept them to himself
Cause he knew that nobody
Would understand the anger
He has for this living of concrete and wealth
Singing hidee hay let the walls tumble in
Wont you take me back sallie
I’ll sing it again
Singing hidee hay let the walls tumble in
Won’t you take me back south
I’ll sing it again
