Way Down South - Alif Tree

I was born and raised on a little ol' farm

Shotgun house down by the swamp

Work was hard and times were kinda rough

But we just kept on scuffling and hanging tough

The one thing in our lives that kept our spirits high

We could let the music out

And it’s so cool, baby, boogie way down south

Saturday morning everybody goes into town

Hugging and laughing and talking till the sun goes down

Sit out on the porch late in the night

Break out the guitar, baby, it’s feeling right

Backbeat on the knee hit you down in your feet

Make you want to jump and shout

And it’s so cool, baby, the boogie way down south

Yeah…

We all moved off and got big city ways

But I still think about those laid back days

Sometimes it hits me in a dream

And I can almost taste that homemade ice cream

Backbeat on the knee hit you down in your feet

Make you want to jump and shout

And it’s so cool, baby, the boogie way down south
