Nabbed this off passingafternoon.com but it ought to be up here... Capo 2 [Verse 1] just like the way that you ran to wine when they made the new milk turn Jesus a friend in the better times let your mother’s bible burn freedom a fever you suffered through and the dog drank from your cup frozen the river that baptized you and the horse died standing up [Chorus]   but when a southern anthem rings she will buckle to that sound when that southern anthem sings it will lay her burdens down [Verse 2] Just like the way you lost your guns When they cut the clothesline loose Jesus a friend of the weaker ones Said "I’m all they stole from you" Freedom a thistle that withered dry Still a baby in your hands Frozen the ground refused to die And the guitar rose again [Chorus]   But when that southern anthem rings She will buckle to the sound When that southern anthem rings It will lay her burdens down

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une quête de liberté et de rédemption à travers des images puissantes de luttes passées. Elle fait référence à des moments de souffrance et d'espoir, en mettant en avant la relation entre la foi et les épreuves de la vie. On y ressent la nostalgie d'un temps où la spiritualité était un refuge, tandis que les motifs du sud des États-Unis, comme les craintes et les joies, apportent une douce mélancolie. La mélodie, empreinte de profondeur, semble promettre un apaisement des fardeaux au moment où résonnent ces accords familiers.
