Well she's never been north of Mobile
She wants to see how the big town feel
But she got about as far as Raliegh
And the whole thing kept on stallin'
Well she found herself stuck in the South
She couldn't get the taste out of her mouth
But she got to South Street in Philly
And the people there thought she was silly
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to feel that big rock under her feet
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to take on that big Yankee stree
Well her daddy said "You shouldn't leave girl
Cause out there its a mean world"
But she didn't care 'bout his warnin'
She got on I-85 in the mornin'
Well she finally made it up to the North
And she figured it was what it was worth
But the people never called her honey
And she just smiled alot and took all their money
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to feel that big rock under her feet
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to take on that big Yankee stree
Well its not that Alabama's a drag
Oh cotton fields just ain't her bag
Well she wants to star in a cartoon
She wants to find her place in the sun
She wants to find her place in the moon
Yeah lets go!
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to feel that big rock under her feet
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to take on that big Yankee stree
She's livin' in New York City
But her watch is still set for Tuscalosa time
You take the girl outta Alabama
But you can't take Alabama outta her mind!
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to feel that big rock under her feet
She wants to walk down Broadway
She wants to take on that big Yankee stree
She wants to walk walk walk down Broadway
She wants to feel that big rock under her feet
She wants to walk walk walk walk walk walk down Broadway
