I said, Mama dont you worry, Im getting by just fine out on the road.
Yeah, tonight we played in Knoxville and tomorrow night its back to Music
Row.
No, I dont know when Im coming home, Montgomery seems so very far away.
She said, Boy, it wouldnt kill you none to look out past the bright
lights on that stage.
(Chorus)
Cause God put stars in Alabama. You just cant find in Tennessee.
The same ones are waiting on you. That taught you how to dream.
I know theres big names up in Nashville. And youll be one before too long.
But God put stars in Alabama. To help you find your way back home.
2nd Verse
I hung up the phone and I could feel the emptiness at 80 miles an hour.
And I listened close and I could hear my heart beating louder than the
tires.
This old bus was headed west but my mind was drifting somewhere towards the
south.
And I closed my eyes and I could see the bright lights shining clearly
through the clouds.
(Chorus)
Cause God put stars in Alabama. You just cant find in Tennessee.
The same ones are waiting on you. That taught you how to dream.
I know theres big names up in Nashville. And youll be one before too long.
But God put stars in Alabama. To help you find your way back home.
Yeah, theres stars in Alabama. (Pause) That just cant wait til you get
home.
This is only my second time submitting and it's late tonight so if I messed up I
I just got frustrated that nobody had put anything together for more of Jamey's songs. Anyways
is my contribution.
This is a great song.
Enjoy,
Brett K.
