Alabama sun burning holes in my shirt, Learning how to live in the sweat and the dirt. [Verse 2: Reflective] Ätti’s hands were like the bark of a tree, Working those fields just to keep us free. But the fences felt like the bars of a cage, Writing my name on a dusty old page. [Chorus: The Driving Pulse] [Instruction: Emotional harmonica solo, bright and hopeful] Cotton in the morning, shadows in the night, Looking for a way to find the city light. Back on the wheels, even if it’s just in my mind, Leaving the farm and the hunger behind. [Bridge: The Wisdom of the Wind] And the horizon was a line I could never touch, Asking for a dream, maybe asking too much. But I’ll take the call of the road in my veins, Moving past the fields and the Alabama rains. [Final Chorus: Triumphant and Free] Cotton in the morning, shadows in the night, Finding my way to that city light. I’m leaving the farm and the hunger behind, With a brand new world just waiting to find. [Outro: Fading into the distance] Just a boy with a dream in his head... Leaving the red clay, looking ahead...
