[Chorus]
I've got Asouthern comfort runnin' Gthrough my veins
My Dmama was the wind and my daddy D/Cwas a AtrainG  A  
AI'm the second coming of the Emidnight rider
I'm a Cmodern day Dold soul singer, Cson of a gun and Dguitar slinger
[Verse 1]
AI spent 10 years pickin' on a six string, working the bar scene, burnin' it down to the ground
ALookin' for a sound that ain't been found by no one else, stickin' true to myself
ASo I took it up the highway, south bound interstate, counting on a big break, tradin' my licks for tips
ALearning to live like I never did, I was dead broke like a bad joke
[Chorus]
I've got Asouthern comfort runnin' Gthrough my veins
My Dmama was the wind and my daddy D/Cwas a AtrainG  A  
AI'm the second coming of the Emidnight rider
I'm a Cmodern day Dold soul singer, Cson of a gun and Dguitar slinger
[Verse 2]
AI thought I found the right thing sittin' in the wrong town out in the crowd
Athrowin' all signs with her eyes
ALooking mighty fine in the line of a honkytonk, just singing along
ABut I never had a chance 'cause after the last song
Awe had to get along down the road the show
ADoin' it again with some new friends under the spotlight, yeah, this is my life
[Chorus]
ASouthern comfort runnin' Gthrough my veins
My Dmama was the wind and my daddy D/Cwas a AtrainG  A  
AI'm the second coming of the Emidnight rider
I'm a Cmodern day Dold soul singer, Cson of a gun and Dguitar slinger
