[Verse 1]
I said, "Mama don't you worry
I'm gettin' by just fine out on the road
Yeah, tonight we played in Knoxville
And tomorrow night it's back to Music Row
Naw, I don't know when I'm comin' home
Montgomery seems so very far away"
She said, "Boy, it wouldn't kill you now
To look out past the bright lights on that stage"
[Chorus]
'Cause God put stars in Alabama
You just can't find in Tennessee
The same ones are waitin' on you
That taught you how to dream
I know there's big names up in Nashville
And you'll be one before too long
But God put stars in Alabama
To help you find your way back home
[Verse 2]
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 beatin' louder than the tires
This old bus was headed west
But my mind was driftin' somewhere toward the south
And I closed my eyes and I could see the bright lights shinin' clearly through the clouds
I said, "Mama don't you worry
I'm gettin' by just fine out on the road
Yeah, tonight we played in Knoxville
And tomorrow night it's back to Music Row
Naw, I don't know when I'm comin' home
Montgomery seems so very far away"
She said, "Boy, it wouldn't kill you now
To look out past the bright lights on that stage"
[Chorus]
'Cause God put stars in Alabama
You just can't find in Tennessee
The same ones are waitin' on you
That taught you how to dream
I know there's big names up in Nashville
And you'll be one before too long
But God put stars in Alabama
To help you find your way back home
[Verse 2]
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 beatin' louder than the tires
This old bus was headed west
But my mind was driftin' somewhere toward the south
And I closed my eyes and I could see the bright lights shinin' clearly through the clouds
