Southern Nights Swirl: Tuxedo Junction's Rhythmic Escape
Lyrics
Feelin' low
Expressing a sense of sadness or melancholy.
Rockin' slow
Describing a slow and rhythmic movement or dance.
I want to go
Expressing a desire to return to a specific place.
Right back where i belong
Desire to go back to where one feels they belong.
Way down south in birmingham
Referring to Birmingham, a location in the southern United States.
I mean south in alabam'
Clarifying that the reference is to Alabama.
There's an old place where people go
Describing an old place where people gather.
To dance the night away
Highlighting the purpose of the place – for dancing throughout the night.
They all drive or walk for miles
Emphasizing the effort people make to reach the place.
To get jive that southern style
Seeking a specific type of lively and rhythmic music.
It's an old jive that makes you want
Describing the infectious nature of the music that encourages dancing.
To dance till break of day
Expressing a desire to dance until the early hours of the morning.
It's a junction where the town folks meet
Referring to a meeting place in the town.
At each function in a tux they greet you
Emphasizing the formal attire (tuxedos) worn by the people at this place.
Come on down, forget your care
Inviting others to join and enjoy without worries.
Come on down, you'll find me there
