Y`all Come
                   By Roy Rawlinson
 
There`s those who say the time has come,
To drop that Southern drawl,
There aint no place in this new world
For phrases like Y`all
 
Well, lissen not ta these heer fools,
Y`all keep ya Southron tawk,
An if them folks dont lahke it,
Then let em tek a walk.
 
What y`all git they`re is heritage,
Ta shorely be preserved.
Mek all them young uns tawk jus rahte,
An spread y`alls Southron word.
 
It is unique, no other place
In this great big ole world,
Where y`all is heerd, an Bubba seen
An ringlets aint called curls.
 
So tek a stand, an tell em rahte,
This is the way it be.
As long as y`all can tawk reel nahce,
Y`all keeps y`alls hist-o-ree.
