Sweet Wednesday - Southern Drawl lyrics

I remember my hair was at sixes and sevens You told me, "How lovely you are… There's a strange kind of glow that you get to your face from The nights that you slept in the car." And you said, "There's a place in the town You can hold down a job You can shake off your load…" But the price was too heavy And I too unsteady And so I got back on the road And I carry a Southern Drawl Sometimes, 'cause it makes me think of you Makes me think of you Heart shaped tomatoes Forget-me-not flowers And lace, in your garden they grow And I just throw down a few Seeds in each town In the ground by the side of the road And I come back, they're trampled Or starving for light And I tend them The best that I can But the one in your yard that we planted together It reaches a green, leafy hand And I carry a Southern Drawl Sometimes, 'cause it makes me think of you Makes me think of you And we haven't spoken for years Still your voice, it comes out of my mouth From time to time And folks always ask From what part I come in the South Oh, the last time I saw you My coat was unraveling And so you held onto the string And it stretched across miles And mountains and oceans 'Til it all fell apart at the seams And when it was gone, well I had just my arms And my knees to keep me from the cold But the last words we've spoken Were angry, so stubborn You won't call again on the phone So I carry a Southern Drawl Sometimes, 'cause it makes me think of you Makes me think of you
