I met a woman in West Virginia
She said her name was Alabama
She's from a little town outside Savannah
Where everybody talk that country grammar
She said she killed a man down in Atlanta
He beat her and he drank till he couldn't stand up
He told her that he loved her but he couldn't stand her
She caught him in his sleep, hit him with the hammer
She sold her car and she bought a gun
Johnny Law got her on the run
Another broken bottle and the damage done
We've all been blinded by the sun
Blinded by the sun
Her breath was sweet, her eyes were pretty
She said her zodiac sign was Cancer
She was on her way to New York City
Trying to get a job there as a dancer
And then she asked if she could ride up with me
And I'm still thinking on the answer
She don't want love, she won't take pity
She'll break your heart if you give her the chance to
This scrammer got an uzi and it weighs a ton
Johnny Law got her on the run
Another broken bottle and the damage done
We've all been blinded by the sun
Blinded by the sun
(Sun Sun Sun
Sun Sun Sun)
Lord have mercy on me for all the things I've done (all the things I've done)
I lost my mind, my eyes were blinded by the sun (blinded by the sun)
Don't forsake me Lord, I'm not the only one (not the only one, no)
I lost my mind, my eyes were blinded by the sun (blinded by the sun, yeah)
Blinded by the sun
This scrammer got an uzi and it weighs a ton
Johnny Law got her on the run
Another broken bottle and the damage done
We've all been blinded by the sun
Blinded by the sun
