[Intro]
(Good God, man)
Woo (Let's do it), Jason (Worst band ever)
(Who's Jason?)
Huh? Yeah, exactly
G-A, whatever—
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Rock 'n' Roll Point, [?]
Ladies and gentlemen, on one side, Jason Isbell, haha
[?] (Yeah)
([?] ignorant sluts)
[Verse 1]
I grew up two hours north of Birmingham
Me and my daddy used to fish next to Wilson Dam
Well, he told some stories, Camaros and J.W. Dant
When I got a little older, I wouldn't and now daddy can't
[Chorus]
But I thank God for the TVA
Thank God for the TVA
When me and my daddy used to bow to the river and pray
Thank God for TVA
[Verse 2]
When I was fifteen, me and my girl sat out on the lock
Watchin' the raccoons and terrapins dance on the rocks
She let me put my hand up under her shirt
And I needed her to want me so bad it hurt
[Chorus]
So I thank God for the TVA
Thank God for the TVA
When me and my baby used to lay 'round and wait on the day
Thank God for the TVA
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
My granddaddy told me when he was just seven or so
His daddy lost work, they didn't have a row left to hoe
Not too much to eat for seven nearly-grown boys and three ugly girls
All livin' out of a tent, bunch of sharecroppers versus the world
So my great grandma sat down, wrote a letter to FDR
She gave it two full days, sent his county men out in a car
They're all out in the field, told my grandpa to put down the plow
He helped build the dam, gave power to most of the south
[Chorus]
So I thank God for the TVA
Thank God for the TVA
When Roosevelt let us all work for an honest day's pay
Thank God for the TVA
Thank God for the TVA
