Sunday in the south

**Disclaimer: I do not own any of the audio content of this video.**

Millworker houses lined up in a row

Another southern Sunday's morning glow

Beneath the steeple all the people have begun

Shakin hands with the man who grips the gospel gun

While the quiet prayer

The smell of dinner on the ground

Fills up the mornin air

ain't nothin sweeter around

I can almost hear my momma pray


Oh Lord forgive us, when we doubt

another sacred Sunday in the South

Verse 2
continue with same chords as Verse 1

A ragged rebel flag flies high above it all

poppin in the wind like an angry cannon ball

Now the coals of history are cold and still

but they still smell the powder burning and they probably always will

and on the old town square under the barber shop pole

they set me up in the chair

when I was 4-years old

I cannot almost hear my papa say

Chorus 2

want you hold still son stop squirmin around

another southern Sunday's comin' 'round

break


I can almost hear the old folks say

you'll make it big one day and leave this town

it's another lazy Sunday, back around


I can feel the evenin' sun go down

and all the lights in the houses one by one go out

softly in the distance nothin' stirs about

and the night is filled

with the sound of a whipperwhill

on a sunday in the south allright

repeat intro until end

just another Sunday (just another Sunday in the south)

Oh, another sacred Sunday in the south

just another sunday (how I miss those old sweet Sunday's in the south)

another sacred Sunday (I can hear my momma callin' in the south, allright)

just another Sunday

Thank you for posting this. It reminds me of my grandmother (who passed away in 1990) and my mom who passed in December of 2010.

This is a song about growing up in the South, can we please STOP PUTTING THE CIVIL WAR IN TO EVERYTHING. So they mention there was a Rebel flag, well that's part of the South and as much as some hate to admit it it is part of our NATIONAL history.

[walters1178]

good song choice ashleylynn. this song reminds me of where i grew up

[edfant1970]

Nice This aint about black or white but blue and grey! The civil war wasn't about slavery but states succeeding form the union, I know alot of southern african americsns who love to just live life, in the south.....Ed Fant 903 665 8923

if african americans take offense to thjs song about the south they need to go back to school and study there history again. they were not as oppresed as people are led to believe. being as they were enslaved by there own people through dutch traders to america. take it out on them.
