	Story Behind the Song I wrote this tune about coming to terms with the raltionship of my real father. He grew up in Alabama and I grew up in California due to my parents divorce. Growing older, I realized that Alabama is in my blood, even if my daddy wasn't there day to day. We've since come together again and I gave him this song for Christmas in 2001. Lyrics When I was just a little girl Daddy was a mystery to me He would call me on the telephone And buy me all the things he couldn’t be CH Youve got eyes like your daddy And all of his good traits And every time you smile, I can see his face Thats what they told me, When I was growing up All that I can feel is my Alabama blood Broken vows and broken dreams I didnt find the answer with a ring Wound up stronger through my songs Found something in the deepest part of me CH Bridge Found some soul didnt know I had Southern blood was rising up in me Feeling country and it felt good Singing gospel and breaking some rules I Thank my daddy in this world Hope to tell him close sometime someday That southern blood is mighty strong I know now hes been with me all along
