Under the southern star I heal all of my scars

As cicadas sing ain't it the sweetest dream

Winding kudzu vines untangle up my mind

How beloved is my home sweet home

I've been a drifter down most highways

I've been lost at sea

There's one thing this world could never take from me

No matter how far I go

No matter how deep the dark

I know I can always count on the southern star

How do I define all those good ole times

Way on way back when

Rowdy and full of friends

Bitter but mostly sweet, a temporary treat

Wish somebody told me so I'd have known

I've been a drifter down most highways

I've been lost at sea

There's one thing this world could never take from me

No matter how far I go

No matter how deep the dark

I know I can always count on the southern star

(Instrumental)

Oh I've been a drifter down most highways

I've been lost at sea

There's one thing this world could never take from me

No matter how far I go

No matter how deep the dark

I know I can always count on the southern star

Under the southern star I heal all of my scars

As cicadas sing ain't it the sweetest dream

Winding kudzu vines untangled of my mind

How beloved is my home sweet home

How beloved is my home sweet home
