Alabama is a country music and southern rock band from Fort Payne, Alabama, United States. The band was founded in 1969 by Randy Owen (lead vocals, Rhythm Guitar) and his cousin Teddy Gentry (bass guitar, background vocals), soon joined by Jeff Cook (Lead Guitar, fiddle, keyboards).

Clear creeks and cool mountain mornings
Honest work out in the field
Corn bread in my mama's kitchen 
Daddy saying grace before the meal 
Family ties run deep in this land
And I'm never very far from what I am

I was born country, and that's what I'll always be 
Like the rivers and the woodlands, wild and free
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood 
I was born country, and this country's what I love 

Moonlight and you here beside me
Crickets serenading in the yard
What more could two people ask for
Laying here in love beneath the stars 
Now this is where I wanna raise my kids 
Just the way my mom and daddy did 

I was born country, and that's what I'll always be 
Like the rivers and the woodlands, wild and free
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood 
I was born country, and this country's what I love 

I was born country, and that's what I'll always be 
Like the rivers and the woodlands, wild and free
I got a hundred years of down home running through my blood 
I was born country, and this country's what I love 
I was born country
