  • This video was filmed in Georgia with the help of neighbors, friends and family.
    We started up in the North Georgia hills and worked our way down to Atlanta where we gathered for a meal in the backyard. My mom even dropped by for the festivities. This song is about my love of all the good things in the South and the reality of what we wrestle with; in spite of all that is unacceptable and dysfunctional, we take pride in our ability to gather and overcome.

    Love it!!! As a gay and proud middle aged black man who was born and raised in Athens, GA and graduated from GA Tech in engineering, the words of this deeply resonate with my bruised and aching soul., God bless you Amy Ray for having the courage to record this song.

      I was raised in Athens, too, Dexter. This song makes me cry. I don't understand why people can't just love each other. Still going on after all these years. We must continue to fight hatred, racism, all the dark ugly parts of America's history, replaying itself like a wicked broken record. 💖

    You expressing through music your complex feelings of being in the South is cathartic to me as I feel them too. Thank you for this song Amy! Truly thank you.

    This album is really great. So many southern musicians are sort of grappling with love of their home and people and the hateful stuff some of the other people living there are putting out. This song should be up there with Mandolin Orange's "Wildfire" and Jason Isbell's White Man's world.

    I love this song. I do my best to listen, deeply, to all of your "southern" songs. As a progressive who lives out west, I have always found it really difficult to understand how you (and others) can continue to live there. And/but, like I said, I do my best to listen, deeply, to this, to Become You, etc. Thanks for your eloquence on this (and oh so many) topics.

      I saw the band in Nashville this week. Any fan of IG should know Amy's feelings about the town. She talked in between songs about living in a town that doesn't like her. She referenced a preacher at one point and said he doesn't like me but I'm not giving up

    Saw this fabulous band at this past weekend…at an unforgettable venue called Haw River Ballroom. Top notch show! I’m a HUGE fan of Amy Ray from her Indigo Girls fame & was dying to see her solo work. Certainly NOT disappointed by the music, the band, the venue, and the fact that Amy herself rocks and sings as strong & soulful as ever. What an enjoyable event! Congratulations to Amy & her band. I am thrilled to see the show and pick up a tee shirt.

    i'll get your text about 3 am
    when i cross back over the border again
    bye-bye canada hello usa
    those lefties sure make a lot of sense
    and sometimes it's nice to feel good in my skin
    but i'd trade it all for some southern hospitality
    i know that you don't like me
    oh but it sure feels good anyway
    i know that you don't like me
    oh but it sure feels good anyway
    i'm gonna tell them boys don't be a drag
    ain't ya tired of fightin' 'bout the damned ol' flag
    well it ain't southern pride it's just southern hate
    and i know from your mamas that you're better than that
    every time i call well you have my back
    some time for muddy buddies and a tall glass of sweet tea
    i know that you don't like me
    oh but it sure feels good anyway
    i know that you don't like me
    oh but it sure feels good
    i've got gravel from the road in the bottom of my boot
    the kiss that you left still burning thru
    i can't rest til get back home to you
    when i left the last words that were out of your mouth
    were how can you live in the backwards south
    devil in the roots and jesus on the vine
    cause it feels fine
    yeah i was born in the grist of a rebel yell
    swaddled in the song of the whip-poor-will
    they haunt me and they hold me just the same
    but it's an ounce of comfort for a pound of grief
    i just wanna sit on the porch with you and hear the tall pines creak
    still sweating in september when that sun goes down
    i know that you don't like me
    ah but it sure feels good anyway
    i know that you don't like me
    oh but it sure feels good anyway
    sure feels good
    gravel from the road in the bottom of my boot
    the kiss that you left still burning thru
    i can't rest til get back home to you
    gravel from the road in the bottom of my boot
    the kiss that you left still burning thru
    i can't rest til get back home to you yeah

    Been a fan for 32 years. The Battle flag to me is Southern pride. Those who don't understand the history of the Battle flag choose to see it as Southern hate because they don't know any better. That is sad.
