Song:
Southern Love
You have a smile that’s as big as the moon,
And just as sunny and bright as the sun. Your eyes are as pretty as all outdoors; All sparkly in the night’s sky. Your hair is soft as a feather bed. It floats on summer air Like a blowing cloud above the range, And Calico, do declare! That you've stole my heart strings clean away, From what I had them secret, To keep them safe from love's wild ways, And then that special thing you did
