Lyrics
Drinkin’ was forbidden in my christian country home
I learned to play the flattop on them good ol’ gospel songs
Then i heard about the barrooms just across the georgia line
Where a boy could make a livin’ playin’ guitar late at night.
Had to learn about the ladies; too young to understand
Why the young girls fall in love with the boys in the band
When the boys turn to music, the girls just turn away
To some other guitar picker in some other late night place.
Yeah, i held on to my music; i let the ladies walk away
Took my songs and dreams to nashville then i moved on to l.a.
Up to new york city, all across the usa
I lost so much of me but there’s enough of me to say, that my..
Home’s in alabama,
No matter where i lay my head
My home’s in alabama,
Southern born and southern bred.
What keeps me goin’ i don’t really know
Can’t be the money, lord, knows i’m always broke
Could it be the satisfaction of bein’ understood
When the people really love ya and let you know when it’s good.
Oh i’ll speak my southern english just as natural as i please
I’m in the heart of dixie, dixie’s in the heart of me
And someday when i make it, when love finds a way
Somewhere high on lookout mountain i’ll just smile with pride and say,
That my
Home’s in alabama,
No matter where i lay my head
My home’s in alabama,
Southern born and southern bred.
Southern born and southern bred.
Southern born and southern bred.
And my home’s in alabama,
No matter where i lay my head
My home’s in alabama,
Southern born and southern bred.
Southern born and southern bred.
Southern born and southern bred…
Good job as always Alan. 😍

Beau-ti-ful- song,thanks Alan,so amazing!!!👍❤
Love that one.
Another beautiful song lyrics beautiful song thanks Alan Jackson love it
American by birth blessed to be born in Alabama
The older Alan gets, the better he gets!
Talk about pressure- Alan singing that song with Randy and Teddy watching from the front row, and he nailed it!!
And Jeff!!
You're talking about Mr Jackson no problem he is one of the greatest as well
R I p to Jeff of the group Alabama.
Guess folks don't realize Alabama's drummer Mark was sitting right beside Teddy! Love me some Alabama! Always have always will
Simply put Alan Jackson stands alone...he has no equal. On the Mt. Rushmore of country music he is featured prominently.
This was a HUGE hit by "ALABAMA" years ago. Only a great like Alan Jackson can sing a hit from another great and do it justice... WELL DONE ALAN !
not HUGE, not even top 10 billboard, but very important song for Randy Teddy and Jeff for the fact without playing it at a new faces country radio siminar in 1980, they likely don't get the break from Nashville record labels that they were looking for
The older he gets the best he gets love you Alan Jackson
Hey how are you doing today?😊
Southern born and southern bred!
Alabama, the best country band ever
One of the greatest
Hey how are you doing today?😊
Love listening to wonderful voice music only one can sing any son so great
Looks like the boys in the audience really were enjoying Alan sing "their' song. Again, another great Alan performance.
Great tribute to Alabama.The South will live on. American by birth, Southern & Born again by the Grace of God. "OL" Butch
WOW THAT'S GREAT 👍👍 ALABAMA 👍👍 HAS TO BE PROUD👍♥️♥️🤗
Other than Alabama, this is probably my favorite rendition of this song!
Jamey Johnson does it great too check it
@@michaelodom5125absolutely he sung it with Alabama
GREAT JOB ALAN JACKSON THE TRUE COUNTRY BOY
I'll say.
ROLL TIDE! I was humming this tune the night I stepped off a Greyhound bus at Fort Dix, NJ and began basic training in '84. I'll never forget that night. An Alabama boy from Birmingham on the ground in Jersey! More snow than I'd ever seen in my young life! Never mind Army life! A lot of water has passed under the bridge since that night in '84. I have fond memories of Jersey.
I have an interesting story, I think. Around 1991, Alan Jackson had broken through, but wasn't a household name. Well, I grew up in Michigan and had certainly never heard of the man despite my last name (lol). I was attending Ole Miss in Oxford at the time. It turns out that Randy Travis was touring and performing at the school's basketball arena. Three of my Mississippi-bred friends got me to go to the show with them, so we went together to the Randy Travis concert. The opening act was some guy none of us knew named, you guessed it, Alan Jackson.
Ok, so we watch the show, both bands, from start to finish. Afterward, we went out to a bar for drinks and to talk about the show. All three of my friends were big Travis fans. I astonished them when I told them that, in my opinion, the opening act was every bit as good as Randy Travis. What was the guy's name again? I had to look at the ticket stub to remind myself! I told my friends that I saw no reason why, if Randy Travis could make it big, so too could this guy called Alan Jackson.
Time proved me correct, I'd say!
Love that he always stays true to the covers he does. Just like You Ain't Just Whistlin' Dixie.
HE SMASHED THE HELL OUTTA THE BLUES MAN BY HANK JR. NO DISRESPECT TO HANK JR. BUT I IKE ALAN'S VERSION BETTER.
Best cover of this song!
I don't believe there is a song in this world that Alan can't do he was able to do he is a true. talent
To me the best ,country & bluegrass singer
My home's in Dothan, AL no matter where I lay my head.
