I woke up this morning in Alabama Just in time to see the sun wake up the trees Just in time to hear the trees wake up the birds Just in time to find that I woke up in Alabama While you were still asleep in Tennessee I'm not looking for a way to say I'm sorry Just because I fell in love with someone new Just because he said that he would love me, too Just because we're wide awake in love in Alabama While you are still asleep in Tennessee If there's room in your dreams for me Left a note on my pillow or a breadcrumb or three If it comes a surprise that I'm not by your side When you wake up in Tennessee Just open your eyes I woke up this morning in Alabama Just in time to see the sun wake up the trees Just in time to hear the trees wake up the birds Just in time to find that I woke up in Alabama Right next to the one who loves me
