Title: Southern Fire [Verse 1] Woke up to the same old empty bed Dust on the windows, words left unsaid Your boots by the door still smell like rain But I ain’t waitin’ on that train again Mama said “girl, don’t let him steal your light” Daddy’s old guitar still hangs on the wall tonight I poured one out for the years I gave away Then packed my heart and drove into the day [Chorus] I’m a southern fire, burnin’ through the night Ain’t no man gonna dim this kind of light Whiskey in my veins and thunder in my soul These country roads can’t hold what I control Yeah I’m a southern fire—watch me rise and roll [Verse 2] Passed the old church where we used to pray Now I’m singin’ louder than the choir on Sunday Gravel under tires, wind through my hair Got a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of dare These hills know my name, these pines know my scars I’ve got red dirt on my boots and stars in my heart You can keep your sweet lies and your soft goodbye I’m choosin’ the storm and the open sky [Chorus] I’m a southern fire, burnin’ through the night Ain’t no man gonna dim this kind of light Whiskey in my veins and thunder in my soul These country roads can’t hold what I control Yeah I’m a southern fire—watch me rise and roll [Bridge] Let the record spin, let the night get loud I was born in the heat and I wear it proud Every broken promise just made me strong This voice was made to turn the dark into a song [Final Chorus] I’m a southern fire, burnin’ through the night Ain’t no man gonna dim this kind of light Whiskey in my veins and thunder in my soul These country roads can’t hold what I control Yeah I’m a southern fire—watch me rise and roll [Outro] Southern fire… Watch me rise and roll
