(V1)
Lipstick printed glass of wine
A diamond ring that sparkles and shines
Full of nerves I got down on one knee
I asked if you’d marry me
You said you’re sorry and have to leave
Then you drove off into the night
(Chorus)
If I call you I hope you’ll answer
Have you crossed that Georgia Line
Maybe change your mind
If I told you I’ll wait forever
Would you make your way back home
To my loving arms in Alabama
(V2)
Are you headed to Tennessee
To Gatlinburg’s Smoky Mountain Scenes Driving up and down Parkway
Did you pass that Ohio Skyline
To Cincinnati for some good advice
From your mama who always knows what
To say
(Chorus)
If I call you I hope you’ll answer
Have you crossed that Georgia line
Maybe change your mind
If I told you I’ll wait forever
Would you make your way back home
To my loving arms in Alabama
(Bridge)
I’m staring at the stars
Walking these Gulf Shores
Praying You Were Coming Home Tonight
(Chorus)
If I call you I hope you’ll answer
Have you crossed that Georgia line
Maybe change your mind
If I told you I’ll wait forever
Would you make your way back home
To my loving arms in Alabama
Would you make your way back home to my loving arms in Alabama
