Just like the way that you ran to wine
When they made the new milk turn

Jesus a friend in the better times
Let your mother's Bible burn

Freedom a fever you suffered through
And the dog drank from your cup

Frozen the river that baptized you
And the horse died standing up

But when a southern anthem rings
She will buckle to that sound

When that southern anthem sings
It will lay her burdens down

Just like the way that you lost your guns
When they cut the clothesline loose

Jesus a friend of the weaker ones
Said I'm all they stole from you

Freedom a thistle that withered dry
Still a baby in your hands

Frozen the ground refused to die
And the guitar rose again

But when a southern anthem rings
She will buckle to that sound

When that southern anthem sings
It will lay her burdens down
