(Randy Owen/Teddy Gentry)

Drinkin' was forbidden in my Christian country home
I learned to play the flattop on them good ol' Gospel songs
Then I heard about the barrooms just across the Georgia line
Where a boy could make a livin' playin' guitar late at night

Had to learn about the ladies, too young to understand
Why the young girls fall in love with the boys in the band
When the boys turn to music, the girls just turn away
To some other guitar picker in some other late night place

Yeah, held on to my music, I let the ladies walk away
Took my songs and dreams to Nashville then I moved on to L.A.
Up to New York City all across the USA
I lost so much of me but there's enough of me to say that my

Home's in Alabama, no matter where I lay my head
My home's in Alabama, Southern born and Southern bred

What keeps me goin' I don't really know
Can't be the money Lord knows I'm always broke
Could it be the satisfaction of bein' understood
When the people really love ya and let you know when it's good

Oh I'll speak my Southern English just as natural as I please
I'm in the heart of Dixie, Dixie's in the heart of me
And someday when I make it, when love finds a way
Somewhere high on Lookout Mountain I'll just smile with pride and say that my

Home's in Alabama, no matter where I lay my head
My home's in Alabama, Southern born and Southern bred
Southern born and Southern bred
Southern born and Southern bred

And my home's in Alabama, no matter where I lay my head
My home's in Alabama, Southern born and Southern bred
Southern born and Southern bred
Southern born and Southern bred

. . .


I've been goin' around in a whirlwind not knowing which way to go
I've been lost in a jungle of heartaches looking for what I don't know
I've spread my wings and I've done some things that I never meant to do
It's took me some time but I've made up my mind I'm hanging up my travelin shoes

Hangin' up my travelin' shoes
My runnin' around is all through
I'm foldin' my wings up for you
I'm hangin' up my travelin' shoes

I've been riding a sea of uncertainty running away fom is all
I've listened to nothing that life had to tell me watched all my dreams rise and fall
I've made my mistakes but it's not too late to pull myself out of the blues
It's took me some time but I've made up my mind I'm hanging up my travelin shoes

Hangin' up my travelin' shoes
My runnin' around is all through
I'm foldin' my wings up for you
I'm hangin' up my travelin' shoes
Hangin' up travelin' shoes

Why lady why can't I leave you alone
I try lady try but the feeling's too strong
You stay on my mind feel just like a fool
Why lady why can't I get over you

Why lady why it was easy before
I try lady try but it ain't easy no more
To be on my way would be the best thing to do
Why lady why can't I get over you

Why lady why can't I leave you alone
I try lady try but the feeling's too strong
To be on my way would be the best thing to do
Why lady why can't I get over you

. . .


Wish I had just one more chance
To hold you close and say I love you
Can't believe that our romance was just beginning
Now its through
I'm looking for tomorrow
To start a newlife on my own
And all I see is sorrow
You're all I lived for
Now you're gone

I can't seem to get you off my mind no matter what I do
I'm trying to wipe you from my eyes, but the tears keep fallin' through
The hardest thing that love has put me through
Is gettin' over you (over you) gettin' over you

I can't seem to get you off my mind no matter what I do
I'm trying to wipe you from my eyes, but the tears keep fallin' through
The hardest thing that love has put me through
Is gettin' over you (over you) gettin' over you
Over you
Over you

. . .


Is that what time it is
I'm sorry if I woke you with this call
But all this wine is in my head
And I'm so lonely from it all
Don't hang up
Baby hear what I gotta say
We started out such a beautiful story
We just can't end this way

I wanna come over I wanna love you tonight
I don't care about the time or who's wrong or who's right
Just say it's OK and I'll be on my way
I wanna come over could you get outta bed
I'll try to unsay all the things I've said
Please say its OK and I'll be on my way

Is that what time it is
I'm sorry if I'm keeping you from your sleep
But all these feelings are running through me
You know I never knew they ran so deep
What's that you're sayin'
That just before I phoned
You were gettin' ready to give me call
'Cause you were feelin' so alone

I wanna come over I wanna love you tonight
I don't care about the time or who's wrong or who's right
Just say it's OK and I'll be on my way
I wanna come over could you get outta bed
I'll try to unsay all the things I've said
Please say its OK and I'll be on my way
I wanna come over
I comin' over
I wanna come over
Just let me come over tonight

I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home.
Lord, times were good there.
Don't know why I ever roamed

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can.
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band.

Me and my woman's done made our plans
On the Tennessee River, walkin' hand in hand
Gonna raise a famly, Lord, settle down
Where peace and love can still be found.

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We get together anytime we can.
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man,
We play together in Mother Nature's band.

I remember, walking through flowers
In a garden of a mem'ry I'm thinkin' of
I remember, being in heaven
Some other place, some other time, some other love
I remember, walking on silver sand
With a mid summer moon shining above
And I remember, the taste of her sweet lips
Some other place, some other time, some other love

I remember holding her close to me
And I can picture the nights we shared alone
When I'm dreaming, it all seems so real to me
Then I wake up and find it's all done

Tomorrow, I may be holding another girl
But tonight she's not the one I'm thinkin' of
Could it be, my life would just be a mem'ry
Of some other place, some other time, some other love
Of some other place, some other time, some other love
Of some other place, some other time, some other love

. . .


The walls of my mind
Are closin' in
Can't get away
Your mem'ry won't end

Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Breakin' my mind in three quarter time makin' me blue
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
I never stop hearin' the music after the song is through

I still see your eyes
Your warm gentle smile
It was all worthwhile
Each moment we knew

Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Breakin' my mind in three quarter time makin' me blue
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
I never stop hearin' the music after the song is through

Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
Breakin' my mind in three quarter time makin' me blue
Can't forget about you
Can't forget about you
I never stop hearin' the music after the song is through

Can't forget about you
Breakin' my mind in three quarter time makin' me blue

I got something cookin' and I'm boilin' way down deep.
While I'm hot and bothered why don't you give me what I need.
Your kind of lovin' really hits the spot.
The things you're doin', baby, make me want what you got.

So get it, get it, get it while it's hot, get it while it's hot.

Well, standin' here beside you, I can really feel the heat.
I feel your body tremblin; from your head down to your feet.
I know my mind is in it, but my body's almost shot.
If you want my lovin', babe, better get it while it's hot.

So get it, get it, get it while it's hot, get it while it's hot.

Get it, get it, get it while it's hot.
Get it, get it, get it while it's hot.
Get it, get it, get it while it's hot.

. . .


I am so happy with you in my arms
Honey don't you ever leave
Lay back and love me and tell me you're mine
Keep on dreamin' with me

Your hair is so soft and your eyes are so brown
Your body's warm here next to me
You be my woman and I'll be your man
And your love is all I'll ever need

It took so long for me to find you
I've been lonely for so long, lonely
You came into me life to love me
Now my loneliness is gone

You can't improve on perfection
And you are perfect for me
Cast your love in my direction
And I know that you will see

I am so happy with you in my arms
Honey don't you ever leave
Lay back and love me and tell me you're mine
Keep on dreamin' with me
Lay back and love me and tell me you're mine
Keep on dreamin' with me
Lay back and love me and tell me you're mine
Keep on dreamin' with me
