Southern Comfort Zone

When your wheelhouse is the land of cotton The first time you leave it can be strange it can be shocking Not everybody drives a truck not everybody drinks sweet tea Not everybody owns a gun wears a ball cap boots and jeans Not everybody goes to church or watches every NASCAR race Not everybody knows the words to Ring Of Fire or Amazing Grace Oh Dixie Land I hope you understand When I miss my Tennessee Home And I've been away way too long I can't see this world unless I go Outside my Southern Comfort Zone I have walked the streets of Rome I have been to foreign lands I know what it's like to talk and have nobody understand I have seen the Eiffel Tower lit up on a Paris night I have kissed a West Coast girl underneath the Northern Lights I know what it's like to be the only one like me To take a good hard look around and be a minority And I Miss my Tennessee home I can see the ways that I grown I can't see this world unless I go Outside my Southern Comfort Zone I miss your biscuits and your gravy Fireflies dancing in the night You have fed me You have saved me Billy Graham and Martha White I have since become a drifter And I just can't wait to pack Cause I know the route I leave on It will always bring me back I wish I was in Dixie Again I miss my Tennessee Home I've been away way too long I can't see this world unless I go Outside My Southern Comfort Zone Look away look away I wish I was in Dixie away look away
