(Gary Rossington, Johnny Van-Zant, Robert Johnson, Michael Lunn) There's a honky-tonk just south of Georgia A little salvation just a' waitin' for ya' I heard it said a long time ago If your lookin' for your soul Down a dirt road just across the border Well the harder it comes you know the easier it goes If you can make your way a little further down that road, yea When your caught up in between Or just dyin' to be set free (chorus) South of Heaven Always endin' up No matter how I try I'm just south of Heaven Don't wanna' think you can have it all 'Cause all I need is just south of Heaven There's a little girl they call the sweet thing Been some time I'd like to tell you one thing You have nothin' left to lose So by the time that you come to You'll be one more callin' her name Well the harder it comes you know the easier it goes If you can make your way a little further down that road, yea When your caught up in between Or just dyin' to be set free (repeat chorus) (repeat first verse) (repeat chorus) And when I die don't cry for me 'Cause I'll be just south of Heaven South of Heaven All I want, all I need, all I want Is south of Heaven
