LYRICS:
I grew up in a little town named after another
Catching bass and cutting grass is how I spent my summers
I know it sounds cliche, but it’s how I was raised
And I got my first guitar from a pawn shop off of poplar
Picked up Sweet Home Alabama, and Smoke On The Water
And that’s what got me out
It’s crazy thinking now
I’m a mockingbird
Singing songs that sound like other songs you’ve heard
Like Friday nights and headlights on some backroad red dirt, and how Mississippi’s home
I’ve always been a mockingbird but
Now I’m a mockingbird with a microphone
I found myself a contract down on Sixteenth Avenue
Writing songs for anyone about anything I knew
And I've come a long long way
But one thing hasn't changed
I’m a mockingbird
Singing songs that sound like other songs you’ve heard
Like Friday nights and headlights on some backroad red dirt, and how Mississippi’s home
I’ve always been a mockingbird but
Now I’m a mockingbird with a microphone
A mockingbird with a microphone, with a microphone, with a microphone, with a microphone
Do this, do that
That shirt, this hat
Don’t forget to smile
Kiss the ring once in a while
Don’t say, those words
Put down your finger
Throw in a slow love song or two
Well fuck that, and fuck you ‘cause
The way I sing may not be pretty
May not be music to your ears
But when these wings roll through your city
My last name is all you hear
And I refuse to be another
Mockingbird with a microphone
I’ll fly the line I choose to brother
Even if that makes me the crow
The crow, the crow
Even if that makes me the crow
The crow, the crow, the crow
Well do that, do this
Unclench your fist
You’re too loud, you’re too proud it won’t work
Well tell that to twenty five thousand rednecks with my dumb face on their T-shirt
The way I sing may not be pretty
May not be music to your ears
But when these wings roll through your city
My last name is all you hear
And I refuse to be another
Mockingbird with a microphone
I’ll fly the line I choose to brother
Even if that makes me the crow
The crow, the crow
Even if that makes me the crow
The crow, the crow, The crow
I’m a mockingbird
Singing songs that sound like other songs you’ve heard
Like friday nights and headlights on some backroad red dirt, and how Mississippi’s home
I’ve always been a mockingbird but
Now I’m a mockingbird and I’m the crow

That mischievous smile when the first note of Crow hits...
I swear this song needs to be the entire anthem all over the world for the new year 2023!!! I know it's my anthem, new year new me. Living my life for me, not for everyone else ❤️

Dude I fucking love Hardy as a person, as well as a performer.
This song makes me tear up every single time I hear it. It’s so fking good and powerful. Thank you Hardy for creating this masterpiece.
Still my favorite Hardy song. LOVE it...!!!
I loved this video!! Insightful reality. LOVE that song! I am in my home office SCREAMING along with you!! LOL! Ok not a big deal right? Well, I am a survivor of 3 heart attacks, 2 strokes, open heart surgery.(by the time I turned 50) I have Lupus and it went undiagnosed for a very long time. It went after my heart, but I'm still here. Still here screaming your songs and being alive as fuck at 61. Thank you for sharing your talent!!
I love this insight into how a song transforms into its final version. Amazing teamwork.

I’m a prog metal snob, I love southern rock & don’t like pop country. This is special, southern rock/country- it has some very complex elements especially when the crow emerges. It’s damn well written with some thrashy techniques and complex layered melodies. Great voice, as well. I’m a prog metal drummer & would love to jam to this live. What a treasure..
Hardy, you have so much unbridled creativity. Stay with your feet on the ground, but man, keep flying!
I love this song so much! And I love this new genre you're creating. It's so much fun watching the reactors discover this and the switch-up in the middle. Keep it up!
Hell yea ...we need more videos like this
He is such a great artist ❤❤
Fucking legend. Thanks for bein so vulnerable with this bruh
Gotta love a good story for a great song
Record and release!!🎶💜
Awesome seeing the song evolve, I knew as soon as it dropped it was gonna be huge. the changeover at the midpoint i got a huge grin and knew it was gonna go hard(y). I knew it had some limp bizkit and linkin park and nirvana influences as well.
I've never felt someone's music so much let alone how much of the songs you make i love man. Keep up the good work, can't wait for the next song or album you drop
Dude 😮😮😮😮😮😮 love !

I just heard this song for the first time and was blown away! 🤯 It's an amazing song lots of people can relate to. Big fan! Several awards are in the mans future.
This was awesome to be a fly on the wall and witness this come together. I love the idea behind the song and tying both sides of the record together. Hardy has quickly become one of my favorite artists and love the direction he's heading.
Absolutely love this song! This is so dope!!
I dont think I've ever been more proud of a local MS boy! Keep rockin' brother, you've made us all proud to be where we're from!
the best songwriter in modern day music
you guys fucking killed it last night at the Mississippi Valley Fair Grounds in Davenport, IA, (8/6/2023) One of the best shows i have ever been to & it was raining all night, that did NOT stop you & your band. FUCKING AWESOME & cant wait to see you again.
Counting down the SECONDS till this album comes out
Hardy is a Sic Dude!

I lost my brother/best friend last year (Feb 4th). He loved everything you produced and give heaven some hell is something ill cherish so deeply till the day I die. Your music is a work of art. My brother in heaven is probably playing all your songs on repeat. Keep on doing your thing HARDY!! Love you!!

They way you guys reacted at the end of the video was exactly how i reacted driving home from work hearing this song for the first time. Strait up gave me chills!!! Can’t wait for your Milwaukee show!!!
Damn good song.
5:28 i felt that im wearing his face on my "dumb t shirt" right now😭😭
Hardy is good artist
Amazing song broseph. I love all your chit but im also amazed at how damn smooth your bus rides!!! We bounce all over the place in mine lol
Goddamn that line. “Singing songs that sound like other songs I’ve heard .” I’m always saying how you can NOT sit down an write a riff or a chord progression that someone else hasn’t already played the cool part is being able to take that same sound an transform it into your own. That’s very humbling to throw in a song. Nobody wants to admit that as a songwriter but you are 100% hitting the nail on the head with this one. This is. A Fuckin jam! It’s on my bucket list to write a tune with you.
I love your music ❤

I just can’t believe I only recently discovered him. Better late than never✨
Best song out right now
Man, this video is giving me serious “Year and a Half” Metallica vibes! When you just have that feeling that something is going to be monumental…you make sure to capture every moment! And you did…and we’re all thankful you did!
Love that this moment was captured 🤘
This song is my favorite from you.
EPIC
The very quick mention of listening to Limp Bizkit to get it right hit me hard - the first time my wife heard it she said she heard a Limp Bizkit influence in the second half, and I hadn't got that, until she said it, can't unhear it now. So keen for this album, and to see you in Sydney!
Thanks for sharing!
All the songs from the album that were released so far are just great. Banger after banger! I think that something HUGE is coming up next friday. Which is odd. I'm from Germany and country music is close to not existing. Maybe it's because Hardy doesn't fullfil the common country clichees.
Genius again!! From Montgomery al 🙏 ❤️
Love this!

Was up hardy. Song is amazing. #1 hit for sure. Panini more inspiration like that I would look into an old rock band it was a bunch of kids three to be exact called Silverchair. I'm sure there's something wrong there than give you some more Inspirations like this song. Once again huge fan and I really think you need to look into Silverchair Google that band.

As soon as Noah came in with the La Croix, that’s all I could hear for “The Crow”. 10:02
Listened to the whole album but wait in the truck, jack and mockingbird and the crow are the best songs. I also rather like radio song.
❤️🔥 I probably shouldn't of sweated but oh well what the hell
To cool. If you ever need a drummer I'm your guy
