Southern Border: Southern "charm" Will cuss and spit and say "They" ar'nt the same's us, but then our cousins Sit and listen in the same goddamn room Who they know have the same grandmother as us And their other grandmother came in that way And they share our DNA Southern Color: It's red.

I figure that's why folks are so enthusiastic about Mars anyway. Southern Food: Cornbread, Mashed Potatoes, Peas Greens, Fried Chicken with Spice, Gum
