tanya tucker - i believe the south is gonna rise again lyrics
mama never had a flower garden
’cause cotton grew right up to our front door
daddy never went on a vacation
he died a tired old man at forty-four
our neighbors in the big house called us redneck
’cause we lived in a poor sharecropper shack
the jackson’s down the road were poor like we were
but our skin was white and theirs was black
but i believe the south is gonna rise again
but not the way we thought it would back then
i mean everybody hand in hand
i believe the south is gonna rise again
i see wooded parks and big skyscr-pers
where dirty rundown shack stood once before
i see sons and daughters and sharecroppers
but they’re not pickin’ cotton anymore
but more important i see human kindness
as we forget the bad and keep the good
a brand new breeze is blowing cross the southland
and i see a brand new kind of brotherhood
yes i believe the south is gonna rise again
oh but not the way we thought it would back then
i mean everybody hand in hand
i believe the south is gonna rise again
i believe the south is gonna rise again
i believe the south is gonna rise again
