Karaoké Southbound Train Travis Tritt

Well she was born in a north woods town twenty one winters ago

And she grew tired of the freezing cold and living in the blinding snow

But this girl knew she wouldn't be there long she had plans and dreams

And she'd seen pictures of the sunshine state in the pages of the magazine

So she waited them tables and she used her smile saving every penny she can

For a one way dixie bound Amtrak ticket headed for the promise land

Her momma and daddy begged her not to go

When the day she dreamed of came

And she waved goodbye sittin' way up high

From the window of a southbound train

Now she's got a fire burnin' deep inside ridin' on a southbound train

And the clickity clack of that railroad track only helps to fan the flames

No more worries

No more cares

She left 'em up in Bangor, Maine

Now she's startin' a brand new life ridin' on a southbound train

She said 'hello sun good mornin' Daytona you're sure lookin' good to me

With your ocean breeze and your tall palm trees and your southern hospitality

Now she's a knockout queenie in a string bikini

She's drivin' all the boys insane

And this all started with a small town dream

And a ticket on a southbound train

'Cos she had a fire burnin' deep inside ridin' on a southbound train

And the clickity clack of the railroad track only helped to fan the flames

Nor more worries no more cares

She left them up in Bangor Maine

Yeah she likes the boys with a southern drawl

Soakin' up the sunshine havin' a ball

She'll be the first to tell you that she owes it all to ridin' on a southbound train

Woah
