Broadway Songtext
von Bourbon Sons

I was all of seventeen
Damn sure I knew everything
When daddy sat me down
My whole world changed

Mama never saw me graduate
She′ll never see the home I make
But when the wind blows
I can hear her sing
Like she's right here

She′s a moonlight drive
Full of bright taillights
Catching fire to the summer haze

She's an Alabama sunset
Watching from the truck bed
As sky lights catch ablaze

She's my last call home
On an old pay phone
When I′m a million miles away


She′s a lighthouse standing
In a midnight hurricane
Oh, she lights it up like Broadway
Yeah

It was 2017, when I
Shipped out in army green
And left behind the tears in her eyes

I haven't even met my baby girl
She′s halfway around the world
Just counting days while the bullets fly
And I hope you got your mama's smile

She′s a moonlight drive
Full of bright taillights
Catching fire to the summer haze

She's an Alabama sunset
Watching from the truck bed
As sky lights catch ablaze

She′s my last call home
On an old pay phone
When I'm a million miles away

She's a lighthouse standing
In a midnight hurricane
Oh, she lights it up like Broadway


She′s a moonlight drive
Full of bright taillights
Catching fire to the summer haze

She′s an Alabama sunset
Watching from the truck bed
As sky lights catch ablaze

She's my last call home
On an old pay phone
When I′m a million miles away

She's a lighthouse standing
In a midnight hurricane
Oh, she lights it up like Broadway

Oh, lights it up like Broadway
