lyrics

Well I’m from a place called the city of Savannah
Got on I-16 and made my way up to Atlanta
The heat in the street keeps me continually stammerin
Keep my mind on ocean breezes and hangin with my family

Well down in Savannah there’s a lack of propaganda
Salt life comes standard and the common state is hammered
Come down to my house I will teach you some manners
And you can wear shorts from March until December
Down in the Ogeechee St. Patrick’s drinking freely
Sweet Savannah sun above, Tybee sand beneath me
Come on downtown get river faced discreetly
And make a new friend with everyone you meet

Yeah yeah, the city of Savannah
Savannah Georgia, my hometown

Well I’m from a place called the city of Savannah
Where I learned to play baseball with the Bananas
The people up North say it’s hard to understand us
But don’t you correct me on my Savannah Grammar
Don’t you correct me on my Savannah Grammar
I learned it from Jack Daniels while we were getting a- stammered
Come down to my house I will teach you some manners
Get ready for the best time you won’t remember

Yeah yeah, my Savannah Grammar (Bless your heart)
Savannah Georgia, my hometown

Well down under the Oak Trees, where I made my memories
Turning 18 and never growing old
These thoughts of when my life was nice and slow
I’ll take with me no matter where I go

Cause life here’s like a vacation, everybody else just has to wait
And y’all may live by a schedule, but down in Savannah we are never late

Cause I’m from a place, oh yeah
You may be able to tell, I know you can tell, by my Savannah Grammar, y’all
