I was born and raised down in the South
You'll know it soon as I open my mouth
All those cotton fields have blown away
Unless you're rich, there ain't no reason to stay
I'm up in Detroit in this factory
Leavin' her'n back home is killin' me
I told my baby I'm a homesick man
She said, "I'll bring you up some Dixieland"
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
Oh, it's gonna be so finger-lickin'
There'll be a hoedown in Motown tonight
All my buddies say I'm country square
Told her I stick out like a bum up here
I said, "You know, they're all some real cool cats
But when they see you, they forget all that"
They all listen to that hip-hop rap
Ain't no way you can dance to that
When you get out that old violin
You're gonna show 'em all some fiddlin'
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
Oh, it's gonna be so finger-lickin'
There'll be a hoedown in Motown tonight
We'll make sweet tea and some good fried chicken
Yeah, it's gonna be so finger-lickin'
There'll be a hoedown in Motown tonight
There's gonna be this hoedown in Motown tonight
