Ever felt like a place holds all the memories of a broken heart? Conner Smith's song wraps up that feeling perfectly. On the surface, it's about a die-hard Tennessee fan who can't stand Alabama because their football team always wins. But dig deeper, and you'll find that his real grudge is personal. He associates Alabama with heartbreak, as he lost his love in Tuscaloosa. The references to college football games, Lynyrd Skynyrd songs, and even the iconic "Roll Tide" chant are just reminders of where things went wrong for him romantically. It's a mix of sports rivalry and love lost, making it relatable for anyone who's ever tied their emotions to a place or event.
I Hate Alabama
Lyrics
(I hate Alabama)
(I hate Alabama)
It's that one game every year
Where I drink a little more beer
It's over 'fore it's over
If we go there or they come here
Ever since '06
They get us every season
I wish I could say that's the only reason that
I hate Alabama
I hate Crimson Red
And I hate how they yell, "Roll Tide"
When I got a Braves hat on my head
And I love Lynyrd Skynyrd
But Lord, I hate Sweet Home
'Cause when I hear it all I see
Is a girl with houndstooth on
In the stands in Tuscaloosa
Might've lost by twenty two
But I hate Alabama
'Cause that's where I lost you
I drove there every weekend
The Vols weren't home at Neyland
Girl, you had this Tennessean
Seein' ten years down the road
Then you had to go and break my heart
In a beer can covered frat house yard
I guess some things work and some things don't
And I guess some things change but one thing won't
I hate Alabama
I hate Crimson Red
And I hate how they yell, "Roll Tide"
When I got a Braves hat on my head
And I love Lynyrd Skynyrd
But Lord, I hate Sweet Home
'Cause when I hear it all I see
Is a girl with houndstooth on
In the stands in Tuscaloosa
Might've lost by twenty two
But I hate Alabama
'Cause that's where I lost you
That's where I lost you
And I wish I could un-drive those miles
Un-buy that drink
Un-get your name and just be mad about the game
When I say
(I hate Alabama)
(I hate Alabama)
I hate Alabama
I hate crimson red
And I hate how they yell, "Roll Tide"
When I got a Braves hat on my head
And I love Lynyrd Skynyrd
But lord, I hate Sweet Home
'Cause when I hear it all I see
Is a girl with houndstooth on
In the stands of Tuscaloosa
Might've lost by twenty two
But I hate Alabama
'Cause that's where I lost you
