Killing a southern belle

Is all you know how to do

That, and give other people hell

It's what they expect from you too

But I wouldn't have you how you want

I don't want to walk around

I don't even want to breathe

I live in a southern town

Where all you can do is grit your teeth

But I wouldn't have you how you want

How come you're not ashamed of what you are?

And sorry that you're the one she got?

Ain't nobody talking now

Nobody nothing's said

No one's about to shout

Nobody's seeing red

But I wouldn't have you how you want

You're killing a southern belle

Killing a southern belle

Killing a southern belle
