| Kickin' at the gravel in the parking lot
|
| Runnin' cross the street to the record shop
|
| Talkin' to my buddy 'bout some hip-hop tune
|
| Hotter than a firework and it’s still June
|
| Sun’s about to burn itself right outta the sky
|
| Guess we’ll all be lucky if we don’t fry
|
| And the preacher’s baptizing at the river bend
|
| Wash the dust off of Dixie start all over again
|
| It was Saturday night and I swore I’d never leave her
|
| We had the Hossman blastin' on the radio receiver
|
| They say history plays tricks she’s a real deceiver
|
| She gave me something from her heart back then
|
| Made me a true believer
|
| Yeah, and I believed every little word we said
|
| Whisper through the sycamores in my head
|
| Did we really drive her daddy’s truck across Dry Creek
|
| Well, my hands started shakin' as my knees went weak
|
| Then we pulled back in the woods and shut the headlights off
|
| Aw, girl how’d you ever get your hair so soft
|
| I can’t see what I’m doin' don’t know if I should
|
| I can’t see what I’m doin' Lord it sure feels good
|
| It was Saturday night and I swore I’d never leave her
|
| We had the Hossman blastin' on the radio receiver
|
| They say history plays tricks she’s a real deceiver
|
| She gave me something from her heart back then
|
| Made me a true believer
|
| I’m a true believer and I’m lookin' for a sign
|
| That she can still hear this heart of mine
|
| Beatin' to the rhythm of the rock and roll
|
| I’m a true believer that the girl’s got soul
|
| Now I’m back in Alabama by that river bend
|
| Where that preacher’s baptizing his flock again
|
| Now we had some bad times and a little luck
|
| And her daddy gave us that old pick-up truck
|
| And we drove it on up to Birmingham
|
| And we bought ourselves a pair of matching wedding bands
|
| Hey Lord, that was almost twenty-eight years ago
|
| And we still got the Hossman on the radio
|
| It was Saturday night and I swore I’d never leave her
|
| We had the Hossman blastin' on the radio receiver
|
| They say history plays tricks she’s a real deceiver
|
| She gave me something from her heart back then
|
| Made me a true believer
|
| True Believer
|
| A true believer
|
| She made me a true believer
|
| Yes, I’m a true believer… |
