Right next door to airport

An hour from Baton Rouge


There's a city on the delta


Where they love to sing the blues




The lady there, I'm certain


She can make a man of you, yeah




There's a pretty little crucifix


Hangs above her bed

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 of her innocence


And stole away her youth, yeah

Alright





And 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


You'll be back for more and




With her lovin' touch


It won't take her much time to set you free

Little southern comfort's all you need


Oh, it's all you need




And a thousand people 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


You'll be back for more and



With her lovin' touch


It won't take her much time to set you free

Little southern comfort's all you need
