There’s a honky-tonk just south of Georgia
Little salvation just a-waitin’ for ya
I heard it said a long time ago, if you're lookin’ for your soul
Down a dirt road, just across the border

Well, the harder it comes, you know the easier it goes
If you can make your way a little further down that road, yeah
When you're caught up in between or just dyin’ to be set free

South of heaven, always endin’ up
No matter how I try, I’m just south of heaven
Don’t wanna think, you can have it all
’Cause all I need is just south of heaven

There’s a little girl, they call the sweet thing
Been some time, I’d like to tell you one thing
You have nothin’ left to lose, so by the time that you come to
You’ll be one more callin’ her name

Well, the harder it comes, you know the easier it goes
If you can make your way a little further down that road, yeah
When you're caught up in between or just dyin’ to be set free

South of heaven, always endin’ up
No matter how I try, I’m just south of heaven
Don’t wanna think, you can have it all
’Cause all I need is just south of heaven

There’s a honky-tonk just south of Georgia
Little salvation just a-waitin’ for ya
I heard it said a long time ago, if you're lookin’ for your soul
Down a dirt road, just across the border

Well, the harder it comes, you know the easier it goes
If you can make your way a little further down that road, yeah
When you're caught up in between or just dyin’ to be set free

South of heaven, always endin’ up
No matter how I try, I’m just south of heaven
Don’t wanna think, you can have it all
’Cause all I need is just south of heaven

And when I die, don’t cry for me
’Cause I’ll be just south of heaven
South of heaven, al
