LYRICS
Headed back down South Gonna see my daddy's mistress Gonna buy back her forgiveness Pay off every witness One more time down South Sell the family headstones Drag a bag of dry bones Make good on my back loans So if I come to your door Let me sleep on your floor I'll give you all I have and a little more Sleep late down South Look up my former mentors Live off Yankee winters Be a landlord and a renter Create myself down South Impress all the women Pretend I'm Samuel Clemens Wear seersucker and white linens So if I come to your door Let me sleep on your floor I'll give you all I have and a little more Spanish moss down South Find the heroes of my childhood Who now can do me no good Carve their names in dogwood Chase a ghost down South Spirits cross the dead fields Mosquitoes hit the windshield All documents remain sealed So if I come to your door Let me sleep on your floor I'll give you all I have and a little more I'll give you all I have and a little more
