Southern Man by Travis Tritt Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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'
Bonafidе simple son of the south
Been with high class, champagne glass
Womеn all around this world
But I was born a sucker for
A red clay low country girl
[Chorus]
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 a Southern man
[Bridge]
Ah yeah
Woo-hoo, hoo
[Chorus]
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 wear the brand of a southern man
A southern man, a southern man
No, this southern man
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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'
Bonafidе simple son of the south
Been with high class, champagne glass
Womеn all around this world
But I was born a sucker for
A red clay low country girl
[Chorus]
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 a Southern man
[Bridge]
Ah yeah
Woo-hoo, hoo
[Chorus]
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 wear the brand of a southern man
A southern man, a southern man
No, this southern man
