Walk around the towns, hear what the ghosts are saying
Find the belly of the blues, and the campus of country
Where rock and roll was welcomed and just keeps on jumping
Along with Tennessee and Mississippi it’s a melting pot of
sound
I’m sure the specters of Williams Sr. and Buffett are still
around
I want to smell the wind and feel the vibrations in the air
If you’re looking for a sound -- you’re sure to find it
there
Author's Note:
Thinking about the Southern States and the history of music after reading Robbie Robertson's book and listening to Jason Isbell's and Anderson East's music.
