  • Stars fell on Alabama
    Like a Tennessee Williams play
    And on the front porch, made 'em crazy
    "No one's that happy," they'd say
    How did I get so lucky?
    You are like a combination of my
    Favorite things, buddy
    More Clint Eastwood than him without trying
    You feel like you're summer heat
    You got me singing 'bout Clementine

    Husband of mine
    Don't let them put all these papers between us
    What's yours is mine
    What's mine is between you, me and Jesus
    I've got nothing to lose except you and maybe my mind
    Husband of mine
    Husband of mine

    Down by the bayou by you
    Where the baby alligators play
    No one talks to me like you do
    Or takes care of us so good this way
    I apologize in advance for what they'll say about the lines on your face
    They're a road map of your lovely life
    Hope they extend you a little grace
    The grace you've extended me knowing things
    The grace no one gave you all of your life
    Take the money, callin' names
    If I had been there, it would have been nice

    Husband of mine
    Don't let them put all this paper between us
    What's yours is mine
    What's mine is between you, me, and Jesus
    I've got nothing to lose except you and maybe my mind
    Husband of mine (husband of mine)
    Husband of mine

    Clementine
    Horses run
    Here we go again
    In my heart
    The Smoky Mountains
    They want for nothing
    Hey, twin, you're fine
    You can call me up anytime
    Hey, twin, we're fine
    If I had been there, there would've been fights

    Husband of mine
    Don't let them put all these papers between us
    What's yours is mine
    What's mine is between you, me, and Jesus
    I've got nothing to lose except you and maybe my mind
    Husband of mine
    Husband of mine

    Just let it roll, let it roll, let it roll
    Off your back, old soul
    They can talk what they'll talk
    We'll just watch the stars fall
