Down on the South Lyrics by Heath Sanders

2019

[Verse]
Nothing like that Whip-poor-will song
Singing to the Lord, like its her last day on, this earth
Buncha highschool kids in a fresh cut field
And a big orange ball melting into the hills
Livin' life for all its worth
[Pre-Chorus]
Didn't know what we had till it was gone
Just laughing and loving
Looking for something, we couldn't find out there on our own
[Chorus]
And Oooohhhh, I miss those days
Moonshine Dancing, taking chances
Lighting fires and sparking those flames
And Oooohhhh, when I think about it now
I'd go back there forever if I could somehow
Cause I swear the world stops spinning for a minute
When the sun goes down on the south
[Verse]
We'd lay out there in the bed of my truck
Praying to God it wouldn't come back up
With her hand inside of mine
But we found out it doesn't work like that
Cause the next thing you know, you're left looking back
On what you thought you'd never leave behind
[Pre-Chorus]
Didn't know what we had till it was gone
Just laughing and loving
Looking for something, we couldn't find out there on our own
[Chorus]
And Oooohhhh, I miss those days
Moonshine Dancing, taking chances
Lighting fires and sparking those flames
And Oooohhhh, when I think about it now
I'd go back there forever if I could somehow
Cause I swear the world stops spinning for a minute
When the sun goes down on the south
[Bridge]
And now and again, I find an auburn sky
Drop a tailgate and drink about those times
And my whole world stands still
I know I can't get it back, and I never will
[Chorus]
And Oooohhhh, I miss those days
Moonshine Dancing, taking chances
Lighting fires and sparking those flames
And Oooohhhh, when I think about it now
I'd go back there forever if I could somehow
Cause I swear the world stops spinning for a minute
When the sun goes down on the south
