Calling Alabama it's been a few years calling Alabama through a thousand tears do you remember when we were young? Used to play by the old oak tree i n your grandma's back yard well time has moved on so does life wonder what you doing this day time my heart longs to hear you laugh like you used to it's been such a long time I remember the day you and your parents packed up and moved to that state of Alabama on a heavy rainy afternoon I waved goodbye as that truck pulled away looked up at the rainy sky it was grey some time I sit my my window looking across the road at your old home sitting here In my chair all alone calling Alabama if only in my heart .
