Southland in the Springtime
--------- -- --- ----------
(Emily Saliers)

Maybe we'll make Texas by the morning
Light the bayou with our taillights in the night
800 miles to El Paso from the state line
And we never have the money for the flight
I'm in the back seat sleepy from the travel
Played ou hearts out all night long in New Orleans
I'm dirty from the diesel fumes, drinking coffee black
When the first breath of Texas comes in clean
And there's something bout the Southland in the springtime
Where the wtaers flow with confidence and reason
Though I miss her when I'm gone it won't ever be too long
Till I'm home again to spend my favorite season
When God made me born a yankee He was teasin'
There's no place like home and none more pleasin'
Than the Southland in the springtime
In Georgia nights are softer than a whisper
Beneath a quilt somebody's mother made by hand
With the farmland like a tapestry passed down through generations
And the peach trees stitched across the land
There'll be cider up near Helen off the roadside
And boiled peanuts in a bag to warm your fingers
And the smoke from the chimney meets its maker in the sky
With a song that winter wrote whose melody lingers.

Other Indigo Girls song Lyrics
  • Fill It Up Again
    "Won't have you see me as your sad sack
    Lost my something and I can't get it back
    Or a kill on your trophy rack
    I checked my schedule now my train is rolling down a track..."
  • Heartache for Everyone
    "You spent five years saying you'd come my way
    That's a little more wait than a heart can take
    Yeah now that I know it's just a fantasy
    I feel a hard time coming around for me..."
  • Free in You
    "A hard knock
    A cold clock
    Ticking off my time
    A long look..."
  • Perfect World
    "We get to be a ripple in the water
    We get to be a rock that's thrown
    We get to be a boy on the bridge
    Standing over the reservoir..."
  • All That We Let In
    "Oooooooo
    Oooooooo
    Oooooooo
    Dust in our eyes our own boots kicked up..."
  • Tether
    "Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
    To spill the blood, to pull the weed
    You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
    With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be..."
  • Come on Home
    "Dark clouds are comin' like an army
    Soon the sky will open up and disarm me
    You will go just like you've gone before
    One sad soldier off to war, enemies that only you can see...."
  • Dairy Queen
    "I heard that you were drunk and mean
    Down at the dairy queen
    There's just enough of you in me
    For me to have sympathy..."
