Now he's lyin somewhere about a million miles from Meridian. She said there's not much hope for a red dirt girl Somewhere out there is a great big world Thats where I'm bound And the stars might fall on Alabama But one of these days I'm gonna swing My hammer down Away from this red dirt town I'm gonna make a joyful sound Continue for rest of lyrics :) |
