Savannah
Savannah Serenade: Unveiling the Soulful Journey of Resilience
Lyrics
Oh, Savannah
Addressing the city of Savannah as a symbolic place of significance.
Lay my burden down
Expressing a desire to relieve oneself from burdens or troubles.
Spent my life in the same old rust town
Reflecting on a life spent in a stagnant or decaying town.
Oh, Savannah
Reiterating the connection to Savannah and the desire for liberation.
Time is moving fast
Acknowledging the swift passage of time in the narrator's life.
Living life in the land of the long grass
Describing the experience of living in a vast, untamed land.
I'm a man who knows
Asserting a deep understanding of the natural course of life.
Which way the river flows
Claiming knowledge of the direction in which life progresses.
I'm a man of means
Stating material success or wealth but emphasizing its inability to provide freedom.
But nothing will set me free
Reiterating the theme of material possessions not bringing true freedom.
Nothing will set me free
-Oh, Savannah
Affirming the special significance of Savannah as more than just a place.
Oh, Savannah
-You're more than home to me
-Oh, Savannah
Encouraging resilience and perseverance in the face of challenges.
Pick up your heart and run
Admitting to past mistakes and the consequences of one's actions.
I've raised some Cain and I sure did have my fun
-Oh, Savannah
Referring to historical events (Wounded Knee) and acknowledging the enduring connection with Savannah.
Down on wounded knee
-When it all comes down it's always you and me
-When I found my pride
Expressing a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
For digging deep inside
-I bared my soul
-But this is the way to go
-This is the way to grow
-Oh, Savannah
Emphasizing the challenges and experiences of a long journey.
Oh, Savannah
-Life on the long road
-Oh, Savannah
Recognizing the narrator's resilience and ability to rise again after being broken down.
It's good to be the king
-You broke me down but again I'm rising
-Oh, Savannah
Acknowledging past mistakes, taking responsibility, and facing consequences.
And now that it's all begun
-I took the money but forgot to run
-When I was running wild
Reflecting on a period of wild living, acknowledging its inevitability, and anticipating the consequences.
At least I did in style
-When I sang my song
-I knew this day would come
-I knew it all along
-Oh, Savannah
Repeating the special significance of Savannah, underscoring its role as more than just a home.
Oh, Savannah
-Oh, Savannah
-Oh, Savannah
-You're more than home to me
