Is there some version of an American southern accent but in French?
Each language has its own accents, so there is no such thing as a 1-1 equivalent of a Southern Accent (in English) with a French accent that has the same "twang" or inspires the same feelings of being "down-home", "rural", and "less high-brow". Probably the French accent that would sound like this most strongly like a Southern Accent to a French speaker would be Cajun French.
