[Chorus: 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: Yelawolf]

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, he says 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

[Chorus: 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 2: Yelawolf]

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

If you 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

[Chorus: 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 3: Yelawolf]

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 champion 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

[Chorus: 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
