Yeah don't you know I'm headed South

I've got two things on my mind

Yeah don't you know I'm headed Southbound

I've got two things on my mind

I need some of that juicy barbeque

and some of the sweet blackberry wine



When I get back to Louisiannie

Lord I think I just might stay

Yeah when I get back to Louisiannie

Lord I think I just might stay

Cause I always get so lonesome

Every time I get away



So you know I'm headed South

I've got two things on my mind

Don't you know I'm headed South

I've got two things on my mind

I need some of the juicy barbeque

And I need some of that sweet blackberry wine



I'm gonna cross that Pontchartrain

On a train, in the rain

Yeah I wanna cross that Pontchartrain

On a train, in the rain

Ain't nothin' more beautiful sweet darlin'

Than that Poncha Tray in the rain



Yeah don't you know I'm headed South

I've got two things on my mind

Yeah don't you know I'm headed Southbound

I've got two things on my mind

I need some of that juicy barbeque

And some of that sweet blackberry wine



I wanna get back to Baton Rouge

Before Winter comes again

I wanna get back to Baton Rouge

Before Winter comes again

I wanna walk down by that river

And cross that muddy river now and then



Yeah don't you know I'm headed South

I've got two things on my mind

Yeah don't you know I'm headed Southbound

I've got two things on my mind

I need some of that juicy barbeque

and some of that sweet blackberry wine
