Intro
D# C# G# D#
[Verse 1]
D#
She’d rather wear a pair of cut-off jeans
G#
Than a fancy evening dress,
A#
And with her windows rolled down and her hair all blown around,
Cm C#
She’s a hot southern mess...
D#
She’ll take a beer over white wine
G#
And a campfire over candle light,
A#
And when it comes to love, oh her idea
Cm C#
Of a romantic night...
[Chorus]
D# C# G# D# C# G#
Is listening to old Alabama, driving through Tennessee,
D# A#
F little Dixieland Delight at The Right Time Of The Night,
C# G# A# A# A#
And she can’t keep her hands off of me
[Interlude]
D# C# G# D#
[Verse 2]
D#
And now we’re rolling down an old back road,
G#
I got the steering wheel in one hand,
A#
We’ll find a hideaway where she and I can play,
Cm C#
In Mother Nature’s band...
[Chorus]
D# C# G# D# C# G#
Now we’re listening to old Alabama, parked somewhere in Tennessee,
D# A#
F little Dixieland Delight and It Feels So Right,
C# G# A#
And It’s Love In The First Degree
[Interlude]
D# C# G# D#
[Bridge]
Cm
Forget about Sinatra or Coltrane,
G#
Or some old Righteous Brothers song,
Fm
Hey even Barry White ain’t gonna work tonight,
A# G# Gm - Fm
If you really wanna turn her on,
D# G# D# G#
Play some back home come on music that comes from the heart,
D# G#
Play something with lots of feeling,
Fm A# - G# - Gm - Fm
Cause that’s where music has to start.
[Chorus]
D# C# G#
Now we’re listening to Old Alabama,

And it's Love In The First Degree.

F little Why Lady Why at The Right Time Of The Night

Oh and she can’t keep her hands off of me

Oh play
