Mofro Blackwater Florida I remember my granpa tellin' me about the early days of Florida Born a swamp cracka' 2 miles from Grannies Bay comin' up the way of the wilderness No car phone or electric light yeah - just livin' life one day at a time No newspaper no war and no stife just the elemental keys that provide for life Florida I know you're out ther hidin' from me you get harder and harder to find Everyday she keeps slippin' away Florida please don't fade on me now Autumn sun set mornin' skies ablaze the oaks and the pines turn their palms up to the sun the kind of beauty that hits down in the soul and still we're hell bent to destroy it all With concrete and steal we pave a road to hell on a land we've killed so take a good look and remember it now cuz one day ya gonna wake up and find it gone Now skyscrapers and superhighways are carved through the heart of Florida Building sub-divisions while the swamps are drained makin' room for people and amusement parks It's like watchin' someone you love die slow Yeah they're killin' her one piece at a time I know some fools who think I should let go but they never seen Florida through my eyes Florida I know you're out ther hidin' from me you get harder and harder to find Everyday she keeps slippin' away Florida please don't fade on me now |
