Take me home to Alabama I've been gone much longer than I cared to be Take me back to Alabama Where the Heart of Dixie waits for me And the Heart of Dixie beats for me Too many years have passed since I've been home And I don't know what's changed since I've been gone Though I know it's just as beautiful as I recall And I can hardly wait to see it all Huntsville, to [?] and Birmingham To the white sandy shores of Alabam' Ooh Alabama, the beautiful, where I was raised And I don't know just what took me away Take me home to Alabama And let that sun and sunshine shine on me Take me back to Alabama Where the Heart of Dixie waits for me And the Heart of Dixie beats for me Take me home to Alabama Where the Heart of Dixie waits for me And the Heart of Dixie beats for me
