about

Here is another southern rock tune from the Southern Raiders Band, “Raise Southern Dixie,” album called, ”Swamp Love.” Of course this is one of them tunes where you need to feel the heated summer breeze coming cross those backwoods swamplands hidden down in our Florida regions. This song has all the aspects you would expect from a song of the southern rock nature. From the chord progression to the slide guitar work we hope you enjoy this tune. This song is also one of our live performance favorites our fans request quite a bit. But that could be due the intro our singer gives for it at our live concerts. Take a listen and if you like it buy we would certainly appreciate it and if you are interested in learning more about the Southern Raiders Band let us know we more than welcome you don’t shy away say HI. Besides, we can use all the fans we can win over. To learn more about us you can also check us out on our Facebook page, you can go to Facebook.com/southernraiders. Thank you for spending a moment with us, we know you are busy and have a great day…

SWAMP LOVE

VERSE
WALKING CROSS-THE SWAMPLAND BABY HEADED FOR YOUR BACK DOOR
YOU CAN FEEL THE HEAT NOW YOU KNOW HE'S COMIN' BACK FOR MORE
TRUE LOVE IS BLUE NOW IT JUST AIN'T WORKING FOR YOU NO MORE
YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT IT MADE YOU AIN'T ROBBING THE CRADLE FROM ME NO MORE

VERSE
CREEPIN' CROSS THE BACK YARD WOMAN BOTH OF YOU DO GO
SUMMER AIR LIKE INCENSE YOU’RE WALKING WITH YOUR YOUNG BEAU
YOU’RE FEELIN' FREE NOW CAUSE YOU'VE BEEN LOVIN' OUT YOUR BACK DOOR
DON’T YOU KNOW YOU'LL BE BACK DOWN WHEN HE PUTS YOUR FEET HARD ON THE GROUND

CHORUS
YOU THINK IT'S ME BABE BUT IT'S NOT
YOU KEEP LOOKING FOR MORE LOVE BUT YOU, CAN'T, HANDLE, THE LOVE YOU'VE GOT

LEAD

CHORUS

VERSE
STEPPING THROUGH THE BACK DOOR I CAN SEE YOU THROUGH THE FOG
HAND IN HAND YOU WALK TOGETHER AS THE DEW BEGINS TO FALL
YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THE GAMES YOU PLAY WHEN I'M AWAY...YEA
LET ME TELL YOU ONE THING BABY I WASN'T BORN NO NOT YESTERDAY

VERSE
PICKING UP THE PIECES OF A LOVE THAT’S GONE WRONG
I’D LOVE YOU FOREVER IF I THOUGHT WE'D LAST THAT LONG
A GUN BLASTING THROUGH THE NIGHT NOW YOU’RE NOT LEAVING HERE WITH ME
LOVE BLOWIN' CROSS THE SWAMPLAND IN THE DEEP SOUTH WARM NIGHT AUTUMN BREEZE

CHORUS
YOU THINK IT'S ME BABE BUT IT'S NOT
YOU KEEP LOOKING FOR MORE LOVE BUT YOU, CAN'T, HANDLE, THE LOVE YOU'VE GOT
