Write Your Name

[Hook: Mona Moua] I'll write your name, across the sky And take away the stars, cause you light up the night Feel as high as the moon When you’re here with me That's why I'm gonna write your name For the world to see [Verse 1] Another old man on the porch with the bottle Wind blows and the old rockin' chair wobbles He's just the wavin', everybody's welcome All he can say about the youth is Lord help 'em Got a couple grand babies, but they never call though Left him in the south and they moved to Chicago Wife's in heaven and, hes saying ever since Vietnam life's been hard as a veteran Simple life, just a six pack, yeah ice cold Across the Georgia line for a ticket for the lotto Probably never see his name in the headlines But if I had a plane, I'd put it in the sky Alabama [Hook] [Verse 2] She’s in love, yeah, Friends call her crazy Met him at a party, they started dating Daddy's little angel, Momma's little lady Only 16 now Brenda's got a baby She can’t afford to, drop out of high school Jimmy's not a man and he can’t provide you He doesn’t want to, but you keep it anyhow Nine months down the road, what you gonna' do now Go to the food stamp office and apply You can find a job, it'll help you get by And you made it when you didn’t know how Now that's a real star put her name in the clouds Alabama [Hook] [Verse 3] You may never be on television or be the one Your boss at work loves givin' you employee of the month May never be the first string on a championship team You may be the star the world just hasn't seen But that don't make you any less of a star to God Being rich is only realising it's all a facade You’re richer than you think in that old small town Cause people like you make the world go round Alabama [Hook]
