Birmingham Lyrics - Amanda Marshall - Amanda Marshall

Hey ya 

 

Virgil Spencer's got a nineteen-inch Hitachi 

And many demons lingering 

Friday night he pulled a gun to change the channel 

Something that he picked up from a kid 

 

His wife remembers well the man she knew 

Seems the dreams she had have all turned black and blue 

She's wasted years, no time for tears 

 

'Cause there's another chance and someday soon 

Shining like the Alabama moon 

She's looking for her promised land 

Out beyond the lights of Birmingham 

 

It's three A.M. and Virgil's passed out on the sofa 

A fifth of Jim Beam on the floor 

She's packed a bag she slips the keys out of his pocket 

She's careful not to slam the door 

 

And as she drives she rubs her rosary 

She's never been so all alone, she's never felt so free 

She's got miles to go, blind faith and hope 

 

'Cause there's another chance and someday soon 

Shining like the Alabama moon 

She's looking for her promised land 

Out beyond the lights of Birmingham 

 

As the rain falls down upon the interstate 

Any doubts she had are all but washed away 

One long look back at Birmingham 

 

'Cause there's another chance and someday soon 

Shining like the Alabama moon 

She's looking for her promised land 

Out beyond the lights of Birmingham 

 

Another chance and someday soon 

Shining like the Alabama moon 

She's looking for her promised land, yea 

Out beyond the lights of, yea yea Birmingham, Birmingham, yea yea 

 

Oh baby, yea someday soon 

Baby someday soon, yea someday soon 

Hey hey yea, keep on driving 

Keep on driving, keep on chasing
