Country/pop flavored song regarding a "Georgia Peach" with irresistable Southern Hospitality.
"Southern Hospitality"
I was passing through DeKalb County
when I stopped to have a beer
And to see about a notion
that I had about the women here
She was far across the dance floor,
she was still within my reach,
the prettiest thing this side of Denver
was this sweet Georgia peach!
Well, I took a big swig of that beer
and I finally went and asked her to dance,
and she said: "You've got a lot of class for a Yankee,
but you ain't getting into my pants
But we could still have fun together,
remember we just met,
besides, what would you think of me
if I didn't play hard to get?"
Give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
She said: "It's all I got to give,
you get nothin' else from me."
Darlin' I don't care if everything
in this world were free,
all I ever need is southern hospitality
So I'm courtin' this here southern belle
and she's about to steal my heart,
when she tells of a tradition
they practice in these parts,
She said "I'm gonna take care of you,
just like my momma taught me,
to tell my man: If it's good for you,
it's good for Donna Lee."
She said "We call it sweet southern hospitality",
said: "I'll give you all I got,
you get nothing else from me."
Darlin' I don't care if everything
in this world were free,
all I ever need is southern hospitality
Well, she found a place
for me to settle down
Stone Mountain is my home,
and she's always by my side
wherever we may roam
You've got to come to Dixieland
It's here for you to see,
the world could use
just a little more
of southern hospitality, I could use just
a little more...
Give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
she said: "I'll give you all I got,
you get nothing else from me."
Darlin' I don't care if everything
in this world were free,
all I ever need is southern hospitality
give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
darlin', give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
give me some of that sweet southern hospitality
give me some of that sweet southern hospitality...
