Just a boy from Alabama You were Tennessee-raised across the line So I took you to the little river canyon panorama this mountain’s where I’m from That river below’s called the Tennessee Where they meet here in this lovely canyon Is where we come together, you and me Marry me Stacie, my love, I’ll deliver My mountain’s gonna cradle your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river Your river So, she said yes there in Fort Payne And we came together to blend our family And an Alabama rock meets a Tennessee rain And the splash was great, but no calamity Cause we love all our kids, mine, hers and ours It’s all the same in this home we’re buildin’ I’m off the bottle thanks to Stacie’s love Onto homework, ballgames, school and children this mountain’s where I’m from That river below’s called the Tennessee Where they meet here in this lovely canyon Is where we come together, you and me Marry me Stacie, my love, I’ll deliver My mountain’s gonna cradle your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river this mountain’s where I’m from That river below’s called the Tennessee Where they meet here in this lovely canyon Is where we come together, you and me Marry me Stacie, my love, I’ll deliver My mountain’s gonna cradle your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river Your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river My mountain, your river
