Wax on My Boots

Create Southern soul/gospel-blues lyrics for a gritty baritone male vocalist, narrative centered on a middle-aged Mississippi farmhand celebrating beating a year-long battle with alcoholism after his young granddaughter left a crayon drawing of their family on his workbench. BPM 82, G major, core instrumentation: gritty Hammond B3 with Leslie swirl, resonator slide guitar with tube amp growl, fingerstyle thumping bass, 3-piece punchy horn section, 4-voice gospel choir backing, hand claps and tambourine. Tone raw, tender, steeped in quiet triumph and worn, lived-in warmth, laced with small, specific imagery: chipped blue coffee mug, sun-warmed pine porch, crayon wax smudges on his work boot, no self-pity, leaning into unvarnished joy of second chances.

[Intro]
[Verse]
Chipped blue mug in hand
Walking on my land
Sunlight warms the pine
Everything is fine
No more poison in the well
No more living in that hell
[Chorus]
On my dusty workbench floor
I don't shake no more
Little crayon drawing shines
Underneath the southern pines
Praise the Lord, I'm standing tall
Lord, I survived it all
[Verse]
Crayon wax is on my boot
Life has taken brand new root
Saw the picture that she drew
Made my broken spirit new
Grandchild drew a happy home
No more need for me to roam
[Chorus]
On my dusty workbench floor
I don't shake no more
Little crayon drawing shines
Underneath the southern pines
Praise the Lord, I'm standing tall
Lord, I survived it all
[Bridge]
One whole year of being clean
Sweetest grace I've ever seen
No more hiding in the dark
Jesus left a holy spark
Now the choir starts to sing
Hear the golden church bells ring
[Chorus]
On my dusty workbench floor
I don't shake no more
Little crayon drawing shines
Underneath the southern pines
Praise the Lord, I'm standing tall
Lord, I survived it all
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, I survived it all
Answered to the call
No more tears to fall
Standing strong and tall
[Outro]
