The South

Things look cold for young John Morgan
We were dying all around him
Wise the wise our young John Morgan sing
Will we feed us all away
We're all heroes
We got giant steps behind us
Just twelve years old just trying to be a boy
There's not much time just time to say goodbye then
Take me away I don't need to be here too
Will we feed us all away
We're all heroes
We got giant steps behind us
Do you see giant steps behind me
Our falling days won't end this way
Something's wrong but I can't see it
That was a long time ago
Where we be when young John Morgan's south
Will the sky come falling down on us
Wipe out time have we forgotten you
Will we feed us all away
We're all heroes
We got giant steps behind us
Do you see giant steps behind me
