I said momma don't you worry,
I'm gettin by just fine out on the road
Yeah tonight we played in Knoxville, 
tomorrow night it's back to music row. 

No I don't know when I'm coming home, 
Montgomery seems so very far away, 
She said boy it wouldn't kill you to look out 
Past the bright lights on your stage. 

CHORUS 
'Cause God put stara in Alabama, 
you just can't find in Tennesee, 
same ones are waitin 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
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 eighty miles an hour
And I listened close and I could feel 
my heart beating louder than the tires

This old bus was heading west 
but my mind was drifting somewhere 
toward the south and I closed my eyes and I could see 
the bright lights shining clearly through the clouds

CHORUS 
'Cause God put stara in Alabama, 
you just can't find in Tennesee, 
same ones are waitin 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
God put stars in Alabama to help 
you find your way back home

Yeah theirs stars in Alabama 
I just can't wait till you get home
