I keep on talking with my stupid mouth Like I got something to say I keep on singing bout my city life But I try to live that way And so I run to my home I book my flight down south It's better there than alone Where only I can shut me out I tried baby I tried, to dig what we did at night But the feelings were too young and close for comfort And you thought I was the one But I was just having fun Ten days was five too long for southern comfort Trying to stop but I just don't know how My feet weren't built that way So many places I don't know about Why did it end up this way? And so I run to my home at least my bed is my own tonight I probably should be alone at least just for tonight I tried baby I tried, to dig what we did at night But the feelings were too young and close for comfort And you thought I was the one But I was just having fun Ten days was five too long for southern comfort I tried baby I tried, to dig what we did at night But the feelings were too young and close for comfort And you thought I was the one But I was just having fun Ten days was five too long for southern comfort
