Bb                Ab              Eb                   Bb 
Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine

Well I'm blue-collar branded, and stuck in a mill

My heart is onward bound......I'm rolling with the feeling and i can't slow  
down 
 
F                                         Bb 
....I need a guiding light......shining down to lead me through the night 
 
 
Bb               Ab             Eb                     Bb 
Oh southern star, how I wish you would shine

Oh, hey my D.J. friend, would you play me one more song 
 
       Fm7                 Eb                 Bb 
And let my mind just go and drift away

Now we all have a dream....and a place where we belong
