Lyrics
Say ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, I got The Southern man, Southern man
Yes I do (yes I do)
When I as a child I made up in my mind
That I was gonna find me a Southern man
I found me a Southern man
He leaves his work boots by the door (by the door)
He holds my hand in the store
We drink the same whiskey and he loves to dance
He be like, "C'mon love, girl do your dance"
I give him all of my love because
He don't play about with love
I don't mean no harm, you got to get your own
'Cause that man there, that's my man
He got a smooth walk
He kinda growl when he talks
He ain't shy of no hard work
He loves his momma and he goes to church (oh oh)
He don't care if them kids is his
He's gonna raise them like they his
It's hard to find one but if you can
You better get you a Southern man (ooh)
Back in the day, I heard an old woman say
Ain't nothin' like a Southern man (nothing like a Southern man)
I asked her how could she tell 'em apart
She put her hand right on her heart
By the way that he wears his pants
It's by the way that he wears his pants, yeah
Now she was talking in a riddle so deep
I thought she was talkin' 'bout his jeans
'Til Mr, Charlie walked up with a smile on his face
And I see just what she meant
That man gotta smooth walk
He kinda growl when he talks
He ain't shy of no hard work
He loves his momma and he goes to church (oh oh)
He don't care if them kids is his
He's gonna raise them like they his
It's hard to find one but if you can
You better get you a Southern man
That woman was so proud, with that man on her arm
Had me tryna chase them down all over town
To see if he had a son (whoo whoo)
She said, "Charlie ain't perfect, he just a man
But he's everything I need"
And now I want nothin' more than a smooth Southern brother
