Grace Pettis - Alabama Girl lyrics
[Grace Pettis - Alabama Girl lyrics]
Alabama he was majoring in agriculture
She played piano she was a beauty queen
He was a hardworking Navy man
71 years later, still holding hands
I can choose where I'm going i can’t change
The place I'm from if I could
I wouldn't want to when it’s
All been said and done
I spent many years running
Over God's green world
And the truth is, I still am a Alabama girl
We grew up on a county road
Where the mailman never came
Spent our summers at the water hole
Even the WalMart was far away
Where all the kids get married
Work at the factory, or go to war
I had a need to get away clean never will
I'm sure
'Cause, I can choose where I'm going i
Can't change the place I'm from if I could
I wouldn't want to when it’s
All been said and done
I spent many years running
Over God’s green world
And the truth is, I still am a Alabama girl
Oh the skin around these bones
And this secondhand name
And a winding mountain road is
Something I can claim
'Cause, I can choose where I’m going i
Can't change the place I'm from if I could
I wouldn't want to when it’s
All been said and done
I spent many years running
Over God's green world
And the truth is, I still am a Alabama girl
