I'll be wearin' yellow chiffon and gardenias Outside a mansion on an emerald lawn Making small talk to the men folk and the ladies But I'm yours, yes, I'm yours I could take you in a house beside a railroad Feedin' chickens, sweepin' out the yard Sleepin' double on a single pull-out sofa It ain't so easy, but it ain't so hard You could take me for a southern lady Cherry smiles and all flutterin' eyes But I could take you any way I had to take you Anytime, anywhere There ain't no money in all South Carolina There ain't no family and there just ain't no man That I would swap for you, my precious little darlin' 'Cause you're my man, you're my man You could take me for a southern lady Cherry smiles and all flutterin' eyes But I could take you any way I had to take you Anytime, anywhere
