  • Beer battered chicken, sweet ice tea
    Night crawlers, crickets and a Zebco 33
    Old Glory waving at you
    As you're driving by the court house
    And it's just another day in Heaven South

    A little country angel like you've never seen
    Took a pair of scissors to a pair of jeans
    You pick her up on Friday
    And you pucker up and kiss her on the mouth
    And it's just another day in Heaven South

    Drive down Main Street and everybody's there
    Subwoofers booming like cannons in a square
    Sign says "no cruising" but nobody cares
    I got a girl to put my arm around
    And it's just another day in Heaven South

    Oh, oh, oh
    It's just another day in Heaven South
    Oh, oh, oh

    There's a bunch of lawn chairs in the living room
    'Cause there's a UFC fight on pay per view
    Gonna fry up beer steaks, got fireworks for afterwards tonight
    Gotta make a little run for beer and ice

    Down on Main Street and everybody's there
    Subwoofers booming like cannons in a square
    Turn on the news you'd think the world ain't got a prayer
    But if you turn it off and look around
    It's just another day in Heaven South

    Eggs on the griddle, coffee in my cup
    Farmer on a tractor, kids on a bus
    Old Glory waving as they raise her up above the court house
    And it's just another day in Heaven South
    Oh, it's just another day in Heaven

    Oh, oh, oh
    It's just another day in Heaven South
    Oh, oh, oh
    It's just another day in Heaven South
    Oh, oh, oh
    It's just another day in Heaven South
    Oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh Writer/s: Brad Douglas Paisley, Brent Anderson, Charles Christopher Du Bois
