Southern Comfort Zone

When your wheelhouse is the land of cotton,

The first time you leave it can be strange,

It can be shocking

Not everybody drives a truck, not everybody drinks sweet tea

Not everybody owns a gun, wears a ball cap boots and jeans

Not everybody goes to church or watches every nascar race

Not everybody knows the words to "ring of fire" or "amazing grace"

Oh, Dixie Land

I hope you understand

When I miss my tennessee home

And I been away way too long

I can't see this world unless I go

Outside my southern comfort zone

I have walked the streets of rome, I have been to foreign lands

I know what it's like to talk and have nobody understand

I have seen the eiffel tower lit up on a paris night

I have kissed a west coast girl underneath the northern lights

I know what it's like to meet the only one like me

To take a good hard look around and be a minority

And I miss my tennessee home

I can see the ways that I grown

I can't see this world unless I go

Outside my southern comfort zone

I miss your biscuits and your gravy

Fireflies dancing in the night

You have fed me and saved me

Billy graham and martha white

I have since become a gypsy

And I just can't wait to pack

Cause I know the route I leave on

It will always bring me back

I wish I was in dixie again

I miss my tennessee home

I've been away way too long

I can't see this world unless I go

Outside my southern comfort zone

Look away, look away

(I wish I was in Dixie, away, look away)
