Hank Williams Jr - Mobile Boogie Lyrics

 

If the South woulda won, we woulda had it made

I'd probably run for President of the Southern States

The day Elvis passed away would be our national holiday

If the South woulda won, we woulda had it made

 

I'd make my Supreme Court down in Texas

And we wouldn't have no killers getting off free

If they were proven guilty, then they would swing quickly

Instead of writin' books and smilin' on TV

 

We'd all learn Cajan cookin' in Louisiana

And I'd put that capital back in Alabama

We'd put Florida on the right track, 'cause we'd take Miami back

And throw all them pushers in the slammer

 

Oh, if the south woulda won, we woulda had it made

I'd probably run for President of the Southern States

The day young Skynyrd died, we'd show our southern pride

If the south woulda won, we woulda had it made

"Play a little dixieland boys, ah yes"

I'd have all the whiskey made in Tennessee

And all the horses raised in those Kentucky hills

The national treasury would be in Tupelo, Mississippi

And I'd put Hank Williams picture on one hundred dollar bill

 

I'd have all the cars made in the Carolinas

And I'd ban all the ones made in China

I'd have every girl child sent to Georgia to learn to smile

And talk with that southern accent that drives men wild

 

I'd have all the fiddles made in Virginia

'Cause they sure can make 'em sound so fine

I'm going up on Wolverton Mountain and see ole Clifton Clowers

And have a sip of his good ole Arkansas wine

 

Hey, if the South woulda won we'd a had it made

I'd probably run for President of the Southern States

When Patsy Cline passed away, that would be our national holiday

If the South woulda won, we'd a had it made, olay he hee hee

I said if the South woulda won, we would a had it made

 

Might even be better off
