[Verse 1] Daddy made his living on the water, I made mine beneath a welding hood. Watched my boy pack up and head for Texas, Said he’d stay back home if only he could. Now there’s talk of rockets by the marshes, Where the herons settle down at dusk. I’m standing on my porch with one small question— Can you see us down here, Elon Musk? [Chorus] Elon, are you looking down at me, While I’m looking up to see? Those rockets climbing past the clouds, And what that climb could mean. You’ve got your eyes on distant worlds, We’ve got children growing up. From Pecan Island, Louisiana, We’re looking up. [Verse 2] A hundred billion planned beside the bayou, That’s a number hard to understand. But I can see a paycheck on a Friday, And a father holding his boy’s hand. Dream of thirty-five thousand construction workers, Lunch pails in the morning sun. Then steady jobs when the cranes stop moving, A future when the building’s done. [Chorus] Elon, are you looking down at me, While I’m looking up to see? Those rockets climbing past the clouds, And what that climb could mean. You’ve got your eyes on distant worlds, We’ve got children growing up. From Pecan Island, Louisiana, We’re looking up. [Bridge] New roads reaching through the lowlands, New levees standing when storms blow. New jobs keeping families together, New hope where hometown children grow. More coffee pouring at the diner, More money making its way around. We’ll watch those rockets rise together— Remember us here on the ground. [Final Chorus] Elon, are you looking down at me, While I’m looking up to see? Those rockets rising from Louisiana, Taking hometown dreams. You’ve got your eyes on distant worlds, We’ve got children growing up. New roads, new levees, new jobs, new hope— We’re looking up. [Short Outro] We’re looking up from Louisiana… Hope you see us when you’re looking down.
