Lyrics
Home is where the heart is
The south is where I'm from
Used to waking up by dawn
Sweet early morning sun
Creeping through my window
I could hear the radio
Frankie Beverly is on
Crooning my favorite song
"Southern Girl"
Now I'm slipping back in time
When I was free and young
And life was so much fun
Puts a smile back on my face
Well, well, those precious memories
Will always be with me
Back down memory lane
The way it used to be
Kickin' it with my friends
And all of my family
Oh, I wanna go back
I had no worries
Not a care in the world
I was so happy, yeah, yeah, yeah
College days were cool
Prairie View was the school
Singing in the marching band
We went hand in hand
Ooh, the family reunion
We drove a country mile
Sharing love, togetherness and smiles
Now I'm slipping back in time
When I was free and young
And life was so much fun
Puts a smile back on my face
Uh huh, those sweet, sweet memories
Will always be with me
Back down memory lane
The way it used to be
When I was kickin' it with my friends
And all of my family
Oh, I wanna go back
When I had no worries
Not a care in the world
I was so happy, woo hoo
Back down memory lane
I wanna go, I wanna go
I wanna go back, take me
Back down memory lane
I wanna go, I wanna go
Oh, I wanna go back, I wanna go back
Back down memory lane
I wanna go home
