lyrics

I was born in Helsinki city
Right by the river with its water pretty filthy
Born and raised on the swamp land
My old man taught me how to be a proper man

As I grew up I got tired of these corners,
yearned to get behind these borders
So got myself an old car hit the road pretty far
Just to get me out to somewhere warm

After driving mad long hours, I came to London Town
Hit the pub by the river
Got me a pint of that golden brown
That's where I met an old Scotsman
He gave me a lesson bout the Whiskey and them isles
He said: "son you oughta come see the north"
I said: "Thanks but guess I'm heading across the bond"

I sold my car and jumped to the plane,
Found myself at Virginia plains
Right next to tobacco fields as big as I've ever seen
Got myself a pick up truck
I thought I better head to the south
Where the music and the sun will shine
Alabama baby here I come

I-64 and I-40 to Nashville, TN
Country music and pretty girls, oh lord so much to see
But I don't need no more big city
Country side will do me just fine
So I turned deeper to south
Under the Alabama sky
I'm gonna be just fine

The Muscle Shoals had the Swampers
They were known for a song or two
Pit stop at Birmingham things got a bit out of hands
Then down to Tuscaloosa to seem Crimson Tide
Tailgates and sunshine this is where
I'm gonna set myself right

Under the Alabama sky
I found a heaven Roll Tide!
Deep rivers and blue skies
Southern cookie' and the sweet wine

This is where I belong
Don't get me wrong
Sweet living' at the heart of Dixie
Under the Alabama sky
