Fairest Quote by Deborah Ford

“The Southern Girl By Samuel Alfred Beadle (1857-1932) The fairest thing on land or sea Is the Southern girl, to me. You should see her when the stars Come studding all the sky; And feel her beaming eye On you when the moon is full-- Fairest of all that’s fair is she, The Southern girl, to me.” quote by Deborah Ford
