Lyrics:

Right next door to the airport,

an hour from baton rouge.

There's a City on the Delta

where they love to sing the blues.

A lady there I'm certain

she can make a man of you. Yeah.



There's a pretty little crucifix

that hangs above her bed.

The bottle she holds sacred

cause it helps her to forget

But Jesus saves and liquor knows

that don't pay the rent.

She knows what you're lookin' for

And she can give to you.



And the mirror is an enemy.

It never tells the truth.

It used to be a good friend

that she never thought she'd lose.

Till it captured all over her innocence

and stole away her youth. Yeah.

All right.

She knows what you're lookin' for

and she can give it to you.



So if you want some southern comfort,

come and get it boy, yeah.

Once you taste of southern comfort.

Oh, you'll be back for more

and with her lovin' touch

it wont take too much time to set you free.

A little southern comfort's all you need.

Oh its all you need.



And a thousand people have walked your stairs

to knock upon your door

each one brand new cross to bare

each one harder than the one before

and I, bet you wished for something else

I bet you wished for a whole lot more



So if you want some southern comfort,

come and get it boy, yeah.

Once you taste of southern comfort,

Ooh you'll be back for more, and

with her lovin' touch

it wont take too much time to set you free

a little southern comfort's all you need.
