Well I've hopped a train, I've rode a plane
I've been all around this land
It may sound strange, but I've never changed
A single bit of who I am, been called a rambler
And a gambler
I'm even known for writin' songs
I've been up and down, been lost and found
But the one thing I've been all along is a southern man
Born to lose but the blues made me a guitar man
Scratchin' out a livin' in a honky-tonk with a five piece band
No matter where I am
I'm a Southern man
Well I don't get shook by the dirty looks
I get when I open my mouth
'Cause I'm a slow talkin'
Proud walkin'
Bonafide simple son of the south
Been with high class, champagne glass
Women all around this world
But I was born a sucker for
Red clay, little country girl
I'm a Southern man
Born to lose but the blues made me a guitar man
Scratchin' out a livin' in a honky-tonk with a five piece band
No matter where I am, I'm your southern man
Ah yeah yeah
Ah yeah
Woo-hoo, hoo
I'm a southern man
Born to lose but the blues made me a guitar man
Just scratchin' out a livin' in a honky-tonk with a five piece band
No matter where I am
I wear the brand of a southern man
And this southern man, this southern man
No, this southern man
