Song | My Home's In Alabama - Single Edit |
Artist | Alabama |
Album | Gonna Have A Party ... Live |
作词 : Gentry, Owen | |
Drinkin' was forbidden | |
In my Christian country home | |
I learned to play the flattop | |
On them good ol' Gospel songs | |
Then I heard about the barrooms | |
Just across the Georgia line | |
Where a boy could make a livin' | |
Playin' guitar late at night. | |
Had to learn about the ladies; | |
Too young to understand | |
Why the young girls fall in love | |
With the boys in the band | |
When the boys turn to music, | |
The girls just turn away | |
To some other guitar picker | |
In some other late night place. | |
Yeah, I held on to my music; | |
I let the ladies walk away | |
Took my songs and dreams to Nashville | |
Then I moved on to L.A. | |
Up to New York City, | |
All across the USA | |
I lost so much of me | |
But there's enough of me to say, that my.. | |
Chorus: | |
Home's in Alabama, | |
No matter where I lay my head | |
My home's in Alabama, | |
Southern born and Southern bred. | |
What keeps me goin' | |
I don't really know | |
Can't be the money | |
Lord knows I'm always broke | |
Could it be the satisfaction | |
Of bein' understood | |
When the people really love ya | |
And let you know when it's good | |
Oh I'll speak my Southern English | |
Just as natural as I please | |
I'm in the heart of Dixie, | |
Dixie's in the heart of me | |
And someday when I make it, | |
When love finds a way | |
Somewhere high on Lookout Mountain | |
I'll just smile with pride and say, that my | |
Home's in Alabama, | |
No matter where I lay my head | |
My home's in Alabama, | |
Southern born and southern bred | |
Southern born and southern bred | |
Southern born and southern bred | |
And my home's in Alabama, | |
No matter where I lay my head | |
My home's in Alabama, | |
Southern born and southern bred | |
Southern born and southern bred | |
Southern born and southern bred... |
