This song's beautiful. Sticking to the roots of writing songs.
I was so excited when I first heard "Johnson City, Tennessee" in this song. I was born and raised an hour away from there, and that's where the closest mall is and where my friends and I hang out.
It just makes me feel at home everytime I hear it.
And my interpretation of it is very personal, and although it has very different meanings, "Rock me, Mama, rock me..." reminds me of my mother rocking me as a child.
I just love the way this song makes me feel.
It was the first song I could naturally relate by Against Me!
Most of their songs are about politics, but sometimes, I just want to get away from those opinions for a moment and be reminded of where I truly come from as a person, before politics even made sense to me.
