Down Home Girl Lyrics

Artist: Nazareth
Album: Play 'N the Game

Jerry Leiber/L. Butler

Lord I swear, the perfume you wear
Is made out of turnip greens
And every time that I kiss you girl
It tastes like pork and beans
Even though youâ‚¬â„¢re wearinâ‚¬Ëœ them
Citified high heels
I can tell by your giant steps
That youâ‚¬â„¢ve been walkinâ‚¬â„¢ through cotton fields
Ohhhhhh, youâ‚¬â„¢re some down home girl
Your shoes are green, your dress is red
And your wiggy head is powder blue
But underneath all of that mess,
Well youâ‚¬â„¢re still the same old messy you
Youâ‚¬â„¢re sittin there in that fancy chair
Just drinkinâ‚¬â„¢ champaigne like a movie star
When ya oughta be sittinâ‚¬â„¢ on a sidewalk
Drinkin white lightninâ‚¬â„¢
Out of a jelly jar
Oh, youâ‚¬â„¢re some down home girl
Dimples in your pretty cheeks
And dimples in your knees
You walk by and baby I
Can smell magnolia trees
You tell me youâ‚¬â„¢re from New York baby
But I know youâ‚¬â„¢re from way down South
I can hear a Mississippi mama
Evey time you open up your mouth
Oh, youâ‚¬â„¢re some down home girl
Oh, youâ‚¬â„¢re some down home girl
