Lyrics
Good Morning Alabama
Got on this train in the pouring rain, alone on second coach.
I cruised through the car's with my boot's and guitar. A real Southern approach.
As we rolled through the steel yards I hummed an old country song.
Looks like I'm leaving Alabama behind
Wondering if I'll ever get home
Rode through the night, dreams in my head,
Only fame on my mind. I'm gonna sing my song's, right the world's wrong's. Leave all my troubles behind. I left my home by the bay for the light's of LA. Now I close my eyes and I slowly drift away. With Alabama on my mind
Good Morning Alabama. How have you been?
It's good to see you in the morning mist as I'm rolling round the bend. And when I'm feeling down and low, I know you'll always be under those Southern star's waiting there for me.
But of all the hearts I've known. And all the coops I've flown. Yes I still feel alone. Until your memories take me home.
Times were hard, money was thin. But I held on to my dream. Played the blues while I paid my dues waiting for my ship to come in.
When I was staring at the stars through the roof of a fancy car on a California night, when it hit me like a stone, yes I'll always be alone. So I'm taking that morning train tonight.
Good Morning Alabama. How have you been?
It's good to see you in the morning mist as I'm rolling round the bend. And when I'm feeling down and low, I know you'll always be under those Southern star's waiting there for me.
