| Halfway Back To Birmingham |
| Don Cook/Ronnie Rogers/Mark Wright |
| Summer after graduation Two kids stuck in Alabama We'd be lovers any way we could A ten buck wedding ceremony A guy outside the courthouse told me The weather down in South Beach sure was good So we hit the road like any dreamers would She was mine for a time in Miami Thought I had her in the palm of my hand Like the sunrise the truth finally hit me That her heart was halfway back to Birmingham This ain't what she really wanted So baby we went on back to Mama Found a note when I got home last night Left a fifty for the landlord Nothin' here to stay around for Ain't but one way left to make it right So I'm headed for that Alabama line She was mine for a time in Miami But things don't always fw9ork out like you plan Now I'm nearly out of gas and it's raining But I'm almost halfway back to Birmingham Like the sunrise the truth finally hit me That her heart was halfway back to Birmingham^ |
