Alabama Man

Alabama Man Written by: Jonathan Pierce (Verse 1) Drives a dust-covered Chevy down a gravel drive Got a little bit of rust, but she's still alive Wears a crimson cap, pulled down low Where the Talladega winds and the pines grow He's a Friday night hero in a small-town blur Workin' double shifts, to provide for her With a heart like an engine, hands made of clay He's the first one up at the break of day. (Chorus) He's an Alabama man, steady as the tide With a little bit of grit and a whole lot of pride From the Tennessee line to the Gulf Coast sand He's Got the spirit of the South right in his hand He's a son of the soil, brother of the rain Finding sunshine through the darkest days Cause he's built to last, doing all he can Just a homegrown, red dirt Alabama man. (Verse 2) Loves the sound of the crickets and a river's song Knows exactly where he does and don't belong Can Talk about the weather and the college scores But keeps deeper dreams behind closed doors He's got a Bible on the dash, cooler in the back Keeping his life on a well-worn track A man of his word, that stands his ground With The quietest strength you ever found. (Chorus) He's an Alabama man, steady as the tide With a little bit of grit and a whole lot of pride From the Tennessee line to the Gulf Coast sand He's got the spirit of the South right in his hand He's a son of the soil, brother of the rain Finding the sunshine through the growing pain Yeah, he's built to last, doing ALL he can Just a homegrown, red dirt Alabama man. (Bridge) It ain't about the silver, it ain't about the gold It's about the stories that his grandaddy told a red dirt legacy runnin' through his veins The kind of foundation that never changes. God willing, never will. (Chorus) He's an Alabama man, steady as the tide With a little bit of grit and a whole lot of pride From the Tennessee line to the Gulf Coast sand He's got the spirit of the South right in his hand He's a son of the soil, brother of the rain Finding the sunshine through the darkest days Yeah, built to last, doing all he can Just a humble, God first Alabama man. (Outro) Yeah, an Alabama man. Alabama man Sweet home in his soul. Just an Alabama man. Alabama man Sweet Home in my soul, I love you Alabama.
