Lyrics
Woke out of bed
Waking up from sleep
Surrounded by a broken glass
Being in a situation surrounded by broken glass, symbolizing a chaotic or messy environment
Man, the morning's rough
Feeling rough or difficult due to mourning
'Cause grieving is a tines
Grieving is a process, implying it's ongoing (possible typo in "tines" which might be "times" or "signs")
This drink won't be my last
Indicating the speaker's intention to continue drinking, possibly as a coping mechanism
Southern rain is here to stay
Reference to persistent or continuous rain in the Southern region
And you know I'm thinking of
Thinking about something or someone
A cloud of judgment day
Anticipating a day of reckoning or facing consequences
Southern rain
Reiteration of the presence of Southern rain
Tumbling out
Coming out of a situation, possibly a relationship, abruptly or clumsily
Out of love with her I swear
Declaring falling out of love with someone
Even though the times are good
Even though things seem good, there's still dissatisfaction
From looking at the past
Reflecting on past experiences
She's not the one I loved
Realizing the person loved in the past is not the same anymore
Southern rain is here to stay
Reiteration of the presence of Southern rain
And you know I'm thinking of
Continued thoughts or contemplation
A cloud of judgment day
Expecting a day of judgment or evaluation
Through the dust, Mr. Tuck
Mention of a person, Mr. Tuck, possibly someone who declined to reconcile or provide support
You refused to take me back
Refusal to be accepted back into a situation or relationship by Mr. Tuck
When I weep, the future's bleak
Feeling bleak or hopeless about the future when experiencing emotional pain
You're alive in me
Personifying the emotional impact of someone, possibly Mr. Tuck, still being alive in the speaker
Southern rain is here to stay
Reiteration of the presence of Southern rain
And you know I'm thinking of
Continued contemplation or thoughts
A cloud of judgment day
Expecting a day of judgment or evaluation
Southern rain
Reiteration of the presence of Southern rain
Southern rain
