Alabama

(Randy Owen)
Somewhere in the mountains in northern Alabama
The Carolina lady waits for her man from Tennessee
Somewhere in a motel out in Oklahoma
There's the Alabama dreamer
That same man from Tennessee.
Sometime late that night the lonely wakes her gently
And knocks at her door but she won't give in
But like every other woman she needs to feel wanted
She thinks of making love and goes to sleep again.
Carolina dreamin' lonely
Carolina can't you see
You will always be the lady
That I dream of holding tight
That I kiss and tell goodnight
Carolina mountain dewe.
Sometime that next day on a Mississippi freeway
The Alabama dreamer is homeward bound
His conscious is as clear as those green eyes of Carolina
And she's waiting with the baby from the love
Of the only man to lay her down.
Carolina dreaming lonely
Carolina can't you see
You will always be the lady
That I dream of holding tight
That I kiss and tell goodnight
Carolina mountain dewe.
Carolina I love you...
