southern ground

mother

take me home

where i've grown up

where i've known

'cos i've grown tired from this pretty life

and i can't see from these city lights

father

take me back

all these changes

my heart lacks

'cos i lost my roots

i need my town

take me back to southern ground

sister

lost my soul

my feet run weak and my heart's grown old

'cos i've grown tried from this pretty life

and i can't see from these city lights

brother

pick me up

i've fallen into this hole i've dug

'cos i've lost my roots

i need my town

take me back to southern ground

ooh! cos i've lost my roots

and i need my town

and i've lost my way

and i can't be found

and i've lost my faith

turn me around

take me back

to southern ground
