I Hear The South Calling Me

By Hank Thompson

G

I hear the south calling me

C                      G

I've been away much to long

C                       G

Mason Dixon fevers won't leave me alone

A7                                 D7

The only cure I know for sure is a one way ticket home

G

Watermelons ripe on the vine

C                        G

Catfish a nibbling on my line

C

Slow southern draws

    G            A7

And home made alcohol

D7                       G

I hear the south calling me

I hear the south calling me

C                      G

I've been away much to long

C              G

Big city blues sure got my soul

A7

Keep it country bars and steel guitars

      D7

And a Dixie rock and roll

G

I've had those New York satins on

C                      G

I've had my feel of it all

C                    G

This time I fell for some sweet southern bell

D7                       G

I hear the south calling me

D7                       G

I hear the south calling me
