Stars In Alabama Lyrics - That Lonesome Song - Jamey Johnson

I said, "Mama don't you worry 

I'm getting by just fine out on the road 

Yeah, tonight we played in Knoxville 

And tomorrow night it's back to Music Row 

No, 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 

'Cause God put stars in Alabama 

You just can't find in Tennessee 

The same ones are waiting 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 

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 beating louder than the tires 

This old bus was headed west 

But my mind was drifting 

Somewhere towards the south 

And I closed my eyes and I could see 

The bright lights shining clearly through the clouds 

'Cause God put stars in Alabama 

You just can't find in Tennessee 

The same ones are waiting on you 

That taught you how to dream 

She said, "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 

Yeah, there's stars in Alabama 

That just can't wait 'til you get home
