I live in the deep south (Alabama), so I'm expected to have a molasses-like drawl. It's noticeable if you don't live in the south, but among other southerners, I sound like a damn Yankee. So I change my voice accordingly when talking to people with thicker southern accents. Best if you read slowly:
(Talking with ?West Virginian? over PSN)
mmm: Hay dere Nate. Wutcha been uh' tOo?
Nate: Hey a Wes(h)leh. Iben watching dat foo'pall game, how boutch yall?
mmm: NAw, Iben bizzy wifmeh schoolwurk. Yallah mount(u)near fan?
Nate: Hayl yeeah, Wes(h)leh. Yuself?
.

mmm: Weigh'ale, aye'll be giten off now. Fixin' a hit da hay soes I cun git up tumarah.
Nate: Alright Wes(h)leh. Take it Easeh.
mmm: Yall too Nate. Aisle [<read as is] ketch yuh tumarah.
Southern accents don't adhere to many standards; they're generally all over the place.

For trying.
