Testo Rose Of Alabam

It's a good thing there's a canopy up over my bed
So lightnin' from above can't see to strike me dead
I crave it like a hummin' bird
Then I'm wanted like a dove
Cause forbidden fruit tastes sweetest
When it comes to skies that love

The pedals of my daisy hit the floor one by one Her roots are bound in Georgia ground
But somethin's blocking out her sun
The stalk don't grow to heaven
And the leaves left me behind
I've fallen for a flower in a garden west of mine
My rose of Alabam
My rose of Alabam

I should give that southern bell a ring
But nature's took her toe
I placed rosie's thorn in my own sack
Just to fill an empty hole
I love the land she stems from
And the seed from which she grows
So I gave up on my daisy for the fragrance of a rose
The pedals of my daisy hit the floor one by one
Her roots are bound in Georgia ground
But somethin's blocking out her sun
The stalk don't grow to heaven
And the leaves left me behind
I've fallen for a flower in a garden west of mine
My rose of Alabam
My rose of Alabam
