Piano keys hammering down
Wayward strums balance a wall of sound
Iron horses sit idle on deserted tracks
Even the Pope says it's the earth fightin' back
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
Let the rhythm rise, like a banner
With more sorrow than anger
Who now speaks of the fires that ravaged towns
Boats cross the Arctic since glaciers melted down
Turbulent rains never before seen
Caused the floods that washed away dreams
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
Let the rhythm rise, like a banner
With more sorrow than anger
Now's the time to reconcile our souls
With a hopeful ear turned to Muscle Shoals
With a watchful eye, the story will rise above
The mad iron hand in the velvet glove
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
Let the rhythm rise, like a banner
With more sorrow than anger

Son Volt è un gruppo musicale statunitense di genere alternative country, formatosi nel 1994 a Chicago da Jay Farrar, ex membro degli Uncle Tupelo. Dopo lo scioglimento di quest'ultimo, Farrar ha riunito alcuni musicisti per dare vita a Son Volt, che hanno subito riscosso successo con il loro album d'esordio "Trace" (1995). Il sound del gruppo è caratterizzato da un mix di country rock, folk e psichedelia, influenzato da artisti come Neil Young, The Byrds e Gram Parsons. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di Son Volt figurano "Drown", "Windfall" e "The World Won't End". Nel corso degli anni, il gruppo ha pubblicato diversi album di successo, tra cui "Straightaways" (1996), "Scenes from the Suburbs" (2000) e "American Central Dust" (2005).
