This is it! The title track from the CD "Rise Again!" A blues rock ballad, this song starts with an acoustic guitar and builds from there, layer by layer. Nice chords, inspired lyrics! |
CD: Rise Again
Credits: Written and produced by Steve South. Published by Southman Music, BMI. Recorded at Barnstormers, Austin, Texas. |
Story Behind the Song
This song tells a story. It was inspired by a story told by "granpa" South! No politics here! If you fall off that horse, you get right back on it! You rise again!
Lyrics
When I was young, my papa told me someday you will be a man.
He said remember son, you've always got to do the best you can.
You know the time will come, when you must choose between what's right and wrong.
And as he winked his eye, he told me something that he never said before, he said
chorus
The South is gonna rise again!
Rise again
The South is gonna rise again!
Rise again.
From that day on, I never could forget those words he said to me!
And like a river flows, an echo in a canyon, it's a feeling I was feeling and I don't know what it means!
But now I'm grown, and I think about the past when I'm reaching for that ring!
And when I fall down, I think about those words that he said to me, he said
repeat chorus
Time moves on, and my papa passed away about a year ago.
And seasons pass, Summer into Fall turns to Winter and we all know it goes too fast!
A young man cries, a lesson in life with a teardrop in his eye as he turns my way.
And as I winked my eye, I told him something that I never said before, I said
repeat chorus
