Under the southern star I heal all of my scars As cicadas sing ain't it the sweetest dream Winding kudzu vines untangle up my mind How beloved is my home sweet home I've been a drifter down most highways I've been lost at sea There's one thing this world could never take from me No matter how far I go No matter how deep the dark I know I can always count on the southern star How do I define all those good ole times Way on way back when Rowdy and full of friends Bitter but mostly sweet, a temporary treat Wish somebody told me so I'd have known I've been a drifter down most highways I've been lost at sea There's one thing this world could never take from me No matter how far I go No matter how deep the dark I know I can always count on the southern star (Instrumental) Oh I've been a drifter down most highways I've been lost at sea There's one thing this world could never take from me No matter how far I go No matter how deep the dark I know I can always count on the southern star Under the southern star I heal all of my scars As cicadas sing ain't it the sweetest dream Winding kudzu vines untangled of my mind How beloved is my home sweet home How beloved is my home sweet home
