Birmingham Tonight

It sure is cold tonight out here on this highway

And my mind is on someone warm and far away

Although it's been all wrong

I know I'd make it right

If I could be in Birmingham tonight

I'd take her to that place we used to go

Yeah, and we'd dance to that ol' jukebox just once more

I'd hold her close until the morning light

If I could be in Birmingham tonight

That Alabama moon would put a shine on

This ol' faded love of hers and mine

And I can't help but fee

That everything would be alright

If I could be in Birmingham tonight

Chicago ain't no place to be alone

And this old storm here in my heart just keeps raging

on

But I know what to do to make it right

I think I'll make a call to Birmingham tonight

That Alabama moon would put a shine on

This ol' faded love of hers and mine

Now I can't help but feel

That everything would be alright

If I could be in Birmingham tonight

That Alabama moon would put a shine on

This ol' faded love of hers and mine

Now I can't help but fee

That everything would be alright

If I could be in Birmingham tonight

If I could be in Birmingham tonight
