Alabama Appalachian High

Song parody of Rocky Mountain High [DVD] by John Denver

He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Coming home to a place he'd never been before
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
You might say he found a key for every door
When he first came to the mountains his life was far away
On the dirt road and hanging by a country song
But the steel guitar string's already broken and he doesn't really care
It keeps changing fast and it don't last for long
But the Alabama Appalachian high
I've seen them thunderstorms in the sky
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye
Appalachian high (Alabama)
He climbed Mount Cheaha, he saw redneck folks below
He saw everything as far as you can see
And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun
And he lost a friend but kept his memory
Now he walks in quiet solitude the cold beer and the trucks
Seeking guns in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand
The serenity of a Talladega track
 
And the Alabama Appalachian high
I've seen them thunderstorms in the sky
You can talk to God anywhere you like
 
Appalachian high
Now his life is very southern but his heart still knows some fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more
More people, more scars upon the land
And the Alabama Appalachian high
 
I've seen them thunderstorms in the sky
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw a flicker fly
 
 
 
Appalachian high
It's Alabama Appalachian high
I've seen them thunderstorms in the sky
Trucks around a campfire and everybody's high
 
 
 
 
 
 
Appalachian high
Appalachian high
Appalachian high
Appalachian high
Appalachian high
Appalachian high
