It's more than just love for our mountains, Summer nights, green forests, blue lakes. It's more than dogwoods, mint juleps and such Or peach pies that our grandmother bakes. It's a love for neighbors, for family and friends Love for freedom, for truth and what's right. Only below that old Maxon Dixon line Can you find this deep love filled with pride. It's a love that some people may envy. It's a love that others may dread. But this love makes you proud if you have it, You're a SOUTHERNER - born and bred. - JG '87 Smoke free home Very good condition 21925.NRGW.10.RR
