Southern Seamstress - Humming House

Sweet southern seamstress on the porch

Slowly stitching up my heart

Lighting lanterns, playing cards

Sweet southern seamstress on the deck

In her eggshell wedding dress

She is smiling through the threads

The threads, the threads, the threads

And I’m high hoping for a long goodnight

For a longer morning with a friend for bride

I’m high hoping for a long romance

A countryside woman for this countryside man

Our eyes on the islands but our feet on the sand

Our ears to the silence but a clap in our hands

(Our hands)

Sweet southern springtime in this town

Dogwoods growing their hair down

Oh what peace we have found

Sweet southern springtime calling me

I can’t help but move my feet

When I dance with Kacie Reese

And I’m high hoping for a long goodnight

For a longer morning with a friend for bride

I’m high hoping for a long romance

A countryside woman for this countryside man

Our eyes on the islands but our feet on the sand

Our ears to the silence but a clap in our, a clap in our hands
