Alabama you've done got me good
You taught me everything
I seen your highways, seen your mountains
But I still got more to view
From Tuscaloosa to Mobile Bay
From Jasper to Troy
You are my homeland and you've got my heart
And I'll be here to stay
Alabama you've done seen some things
From persecution to war
You've overcome and you’ve kept the rhythm
You'll be here forevermore
From Selma to Phenix City
From Birmingham to Montgomery
You are my homeland and you've got my heart
And I'll be here to stay
Alabama you have raised some champions
You've made history too
From football to outer space
And everywhere in between
Alabama
You are my homeland and you've got my heart
And I'll be here to stay
Alabama, I’m here to stay

Well the train pulled in. Its a quarter to ten,
And I don't think I can go back home again
Spent my last dollar, on a cup a joe
Where I'm gonna live I'm afraid I don't know
Cause I'm here in Nashville Just trying to make it
Here in Nashville Don't know how long I can take it
I just wanna see my name in lights
Don't care if I have to scream and fight
I just wanna be right here in Nashville
Well I'll do a little Ryman I'm gonna go out Waylon
Make some Cash and pray that I ain't failin'
They say the girls are something else out on Broadway But looking at them just gives me the blues
Cause I'm here in Nashville Just trying to make it
Here in Nashville Don't know how long I can take it
I just wanna see my name in lights
Don't care if I have to scream and fight
I just wanna be right here in Nashville
Well I'll do a little Ryman I'm gonna go out Waylon
Make some Cash and pray that I ain't failin'
They say the girls are something else out on Broadway
But looking at them just gives me the blues
Cause I'm here in Nashville Just trying to make it
Here in Nashville Don't know how long I can take it
I just wanna see my name in lights
Don't care if I have to scream and fight
I just wanna be right here in Nashville

I made my way to Memphis
I didn't get too far
I'm hitchhiking my way back to your heart
I made my way to Memphis
Maybe I went to far
Walking down Beale searching for your heart
Maybe I can make it better
Between you and me
Maybe I'll get it together
But I know you can't wait to see You've left it up to me
I'm making my way outta Memphis
You told me I went to far
I'm hitchhiking my way out of your heart
I'm still hitchhiking my way back to your heart

I'm just a guy who lives in the rural South that likes to write songs, play harmonica, guitar and ukulele.
Andrew Brasfield recommends:
I made you a CD, but I eated it.
by Molly Lewis
I suggest you buy and/or download every song she has because she's awesome and a huge inspiration, despite being younger than myself.
