Deep South Lyrics
I was born in the south
Given to a town raised on hand to mouth
Born on the same day as the sun
Holding in the Earth, seen one by one
I died in the cold, and waited to rot
Frozen like stone, all is for naught
All that I am is churning inside
All that I am is screaming...
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
I feel it in my skin
Coming undone again and again
Torn at the seam my heart is sewn
Holding back the tears shed on my own
If dying is bold, then courage I've got
I could grow old, but I forgot
All that I am is churning inside
The voice in my head is screaming...
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
I was born in the south
Given to a town raised on handsome mouth
Born on the same day as the sun
Counting every heart beat one by one
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Given to a town raised on hand to mouth
Born on the same day as the sun
Holding in the Earth, seen one by one
Frozen like stone, all is for naught
All that I am is churning inside
All that I am is screaming...
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Coming undone again and again
Torn at the seam my heart is sewn
Holding back the tears shed on my own
I could grow old, but I forgot
All that I am is churning inside
The voice in my head is screaming...
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Given to a town raised on handsome mouth
Born on the same day as the sun
Counting every heart beat one by one
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south
Go and get my bones
Bring 'em to the deep south
Yeah somewhere they can thaw out
Here in the deep south

I think it's:
raised hand to mouth
not:
raised on handsome mouth
here are the lyrics from the CD:
"I was born in the south Given to a town raised on hand to mouth Born on the same day as the sun Holding in the Earth, seen one by one

I feel it in my skin Coming undone again and again Torn at the seam my heart is sown Holding back the tears shed on my own
If dying is bold, that courage I've got I could grow old, but I forgot All that I am is churning inside The voice in my head is screaming...
Go and get my bones Bring 'em to the deep south Yeah somewhere they can thaw out Here in the deep south Go and get my bones Bring 'em to the deep south Oh yeah somewhere they can thaw out Here in the deep south

i think its talking about his past like obviously where he is from. he is starting to lose himself in the world and he needs to go back home in order to find himself again.
I believe this song is about the desire to return to the south after being in other, especially northen parts, of the U.S. These guys are from Georgia, and while touring they go all over so it makes sense. To me it means something similar, as I am from the south but recently moved to the north. It's just about homesickness.
I got ripped in 4 weeks.
