zach and rodney - selma swamp lyrics

[verse 1]
rolled into selma off pettus bridge road
not far from the lost highway hank sang about years ago
struck up a conversation with a wide haired colored man in overalls
reached my hand out my pocket
i was watchin’ real close
i can’t say that i blame him this day in time you never know
yeah, this town’s got a history of certain folks not gettin’ along

[verse 2]
started swappin’ stories about growin’ up ’round the swamp
and the beauty of a bama moonlight cuttin’ through trees covered in moss
then we caught ourselves not thinkin’ about the color of our skin
right there in black and white we put hate in its place again
hate in its placе again

[chorus]
we both got scars that just won’t heal
we try to movе on, somethin’ happens and steals
hope for change, strength to the love
and forget
at night in selma simple men talked
left some things buried deep in the swamp
both found out we’re not enemies
for a moment in time lived another man’s dream
[bridge]
we can’t undo what’s already been done
only one thing can break the chains, that’s love
only one thing can bring the change, and that’s love

[chorus]
we both got scars that just won’t heal
we try to move on, somethin’ happens and steals
hope for change, strength to the love
and forget
that night in selma simple men talked
left some things buried deep in the swamp
both found out we’re not enemies
for a moment in time lived another man’s dream
for a moment in time lived another man’s dream
