Southland In The Springtime - Indigo Girls[00:00:00]
Maybe we'll make Texas by the morning[00:00:15]
Light the bayou with our tail lights in the night[00:00:21]
800 miles to el paso from the state line[00:00:29]
And we never have the money for the flight[00:00:37]
I'm in the back seat sleepy from the travel[00:00:44]
Played our hearts out all night long in New Orleans[00:00:51]
I'm dirty from the diesel fumes drinking coffee black[00:00:59]
When the first breath of Texas comes in clean[00:01:06]
And there's something 'bout the Southland in the springtime[00:01:13]
Where the waters flow with confidence and reason[00:01:21]
Though I miss her when I'm gone it won't ever be too long[00:01:29]
Till I'm home again to spend my favorite season[00:01:36]
When God made me born a yankee he was teasin'[00:01:43]
There's no place like home and none more pleasin'[00:01:50]
Than the Southland in the springtime[00:01:57]
In Georgia nights are softer than a whisper[00:02:27]
Beneath a quilt somebody's mother made by hand[00:02:30]
With the farmland like a tapestry passed down through generations[00:02:32]
And the peach trees stitched across the land[00:02:34]
There'll be cider up near Helen off the roadside[00:02:42]
And boiled peanuts in a bag to warm your fingers[00:02:50]
And the smoke from the chimneys meets its maker in the sky[00:02:56]
With a song that winter wrote whose melody lingers[00:03:05]
