When I left you waiting down in ol' Mobile

To cut a record in Tennessee

Thoughts of you and the things we do

Kept a comin' back to me

Now I've been a workin' most every night

Since I came to this Nashville town

You can bet when I'm finished singing my last song

I'll be Alabamy bound

 

And I've got two arms to hold you tonight

Two lips to press to yours' so tight

I've got two eyes to look upon your sweet, sweet face

I'm glad that I've got a life to live

Got a heart to give

Got a love I want to share with you

 

Now I'm headed south in my automobile

As excited as a human can be

I've got a hit record back in Nashville now

And I hunger for you and me

 

'Cause I've got two arms to hold you tonight
