I feel change don't know if it's them or menHard going from a stranger to an old face that's just out of placenI feel stuck on fast-forward, and I'm passing the best parts all to fastnLocked in this movement, I pray the sky comes to lifennWay out in the cold westnBut I'm soaring home to AlabamnThese states have taken menBut not for better thingsnnI've covered this country far and widenBut I'll always be a son of the southnI'll fight to the death to make our name proudnCause I ain't got nothin' to lose!nFeelin' stuck on fast-forward, and I'm passing the best parts all to fastnnOut in the cold westnBut I'm soaring home to AlabamnThese states have taken menBut not for better thingsnnThese miles have got me thinkin' about missing home and all nI'm just laying here restlessnBut there is no reason for me to be hangin' my headnnWe can't help but be blessednWhen you've been raised by Gods finestnnWay out in the cold westnBut I'm soaring home to AlabamnThese states have taken me nBut not for better things
