Born in Norway and having lived all over Scandinavia, in England, Scotland and Wales along with Germany I led a gypsy life and I have also traveled most of the US... that is until I found my all time favorite place in the world, the South, I have found my "forever home". I love the South and its people, customs and manners and this song just nails it.

I’m 30 now. When i was 16 my Aunt Edie died in a bad car crash. The funeral was held in Mississippi and it was something I’ll never forget. Mississippi police stopped every intersection for the funeral procession and saluted us (40 cars) through each light. What’s even more fascinating is that cars from every direction on a very busy road pulled off to the side of the road, stopped and waited out of respect. I always think well you wouldn’t see that up North.

[@bjwhite7210]

I'll stop my truck in the middle of the road or drive the middle to make people stop for a funeral or a school bus. They'll hit me before they hit a child or funeral procession. We also pull over for ambulances and fire trucks. You've seen our roads, so you know how narrow they can be. I would hate to be the one that held an emergency vehicle up and someone died that could have been saved. I'll bet your Aunt Edie is smiling down on you from heaven when you think of her. ❤❤❤

I recently traveled to LA to visit a childhood friend and to take a week long vacation. I wanted to see the California beaches (ps they suck! the water is freezing and the beach is nothing compared to the beaches on the gulf coast and east coast Florida.) Anyways me and my friend and some of his friends went out for drinks at club. Another group of people approached us and started making conversation, one of them noticed my university of Alabama shirt and my thick southern accent. So he asked if I was from Alabama and i told them I was a proud Alabamian. He looked extremely triggered and asked what I meant by "Proud Alabamian" I said I'm proud of where I come from, which is Alabama. He said no I get that, but why are you proud of being from the capital of the confederacy? Then he told me I must be a racist, Nazi, slaveowner who hates everyone who isn't white. Next thing I know half the bar is surrounding me calling me a racist. I knew I could beat the shit out of Most if not all 1 on 1 but I had no chance against the whole bar so i left. I'm never going back to California again.

[@laurapoulsen276]

I live in the Pacific Northwest. A very good friend mine lives in Florida. She was born and raised there. She has always told me that people in the south are more loving. But you know people are different every where you go. I grew up in a tiny town in Oregon. No one knocks on the door you just go right on in. We would give our last shirt on our back to back to anyone. I believe we are loving and friendly here. You are going to find horribly rude people and extremely loving people everywhere you go because of the times we live in. The Bible even tells us that there will be a lack of love everywhere (Matt 24:12). I’m not putting anyone down and I know my dear friend is probably right. But you can find truly loving people everywhere you go. I really hope I get to visit the south someday soon.

Born on Long Island. Moved down to Franklin, TN when I was six years old. Loved it. One of the most beautiful places in the USA. My uncle worked in the music business and I got to meet Buddy numerous times. Probably one of the nicest and most sincere people I've ever met. Though I am back on Long Island, Tennessee will always have a special place in my heart. Beautiful song!

Wish this guy was still recording. He and clay Davidson were both two new country artists at the turn of the century who sang traditional country & never went pop.

Mississippi born Georgia raised, lived down in my hometown in Mississippi for a year last year and moved back up to Missouri and I still miss being down there with my family and friends to this day and pray to God I'll be back down there soon. This song just takes me back down home❤

You come back any time. We'll leave the porch light on!❤

Being at school in NC makes me appreciate the south so much. Everyone and everything is so much better, people are friendlier, music is sweeter, and the southern drawl of a southern woman makes her irreplaceable, long live the south!

born and raised in East Tennessee, recently moved to Arkansas, after visiting other places between New York to Chicago I know the south is where I belong!

There's no place like sweet home Alabama! Played this song constantly when I lived elsewhere, and was never so happy as when I crossed that state line coming home. Thank you Buddy for this beautiful song!

I remember this song and help pour out the rain. Two songs that filled my childhood with happiness. I share these songs with my daughters. They are 5,4,3. My two oldest love them to death and sing them with me. I wish you were still singing. Your voice was amazing. Idk where you are but I hope you and your family are blessed, happy and healthy.
