Southern Girl Lyrics
And are there locks on all doors?
If you're looking for an open book
Look no further
I am yours
Swing from tree to tree
We could do anything that turns you on and sets you free
You're a bonafide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl, could you want me?
We'll try each other on to see if we fit
And with our roots become a tree
To shade what we make under it.
Swing from tree to tree
We could do anything that turns you up and sets you free
You're a bonafide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl, could you want me?
You're a bonafide rarity
You're all I ever wanted
Southern girl, could you want me? [Repeat: x7]
Southern girl

these are the thoughts that pop into your head when you are attracted so someone, whom you think is so wonderful and special. (a bonafide rarity). when you feel that way about someone, you begin to wonder if they feel the same way about you. this song to me is about the beginnings of a crush... (so come outside and walk with me we'll try ea other on to see if we fit)... wanting the opportunity to try ea. other out. its a beatiful song.

i'm also from the south. the very bottom of louisiana.. and i just know he's waiting for me.

Ha, I live in the bottom of LA too, juliegray, what parish?
This album is too metaphorical, I think, for it just to be about a girl from the South who he wants. I agree it's about a girl, yes. But southern most likely represents something deeper than hometown.

This song is about how a lot of things and people are generalized and closed off (Is everything a baited hook? And are there locks on all doors?). And finding someone who wants the same things: someone to open up to, to go crazy with (animals, swinging from tree to tree, set you free, etc) It's about finding out that this person is exactly what you've been looking for and hoping to try them out and find out if they could want you too. It's an awesome song. I could listen to it over and over for hours*
