Hoedown In Motown Lyrics

(Harley Allen/Steve Wariner)

I was born and raised down in the south

You�ll know it soon as I open my mouth

All the cotton fields have blown away

Unless you�re rich there ain�t no reason to stay



So I�m up in Detroit in a factory

Leaving her back home is killin� me

I told my baby I�m a homesick man

She said I�ll bring you up some Dixieland



CHORUS:

There�ll be a hoedown in Motown tonight

She�s gonna bring some southern sun

To these northern skies

We�ll make sweet tea and some good fried chicken

The love we make will be finger lickin�

There�s gonna be be a hoedown in Motown tonight



All my buddies say I�m country square

Told her I stick out like a thumb up here

I said you know they�re all some real cool cats

But when they see you they�ll forget all that



They all listen to that hip-hop rap

There ain�t no way that you can dance to that

Unless you string up that ol� violin

We�re gonna show �em all some fiddlin�



REPEAT CHORUS
