You Ain't Alone Lyrics

You ain't alone, so why you lonely?
There you go on the dark end of the street
Are you scared to tell somebody how you feel about somebody?
Are you scared what somebody's gonna think?
Or are you scared to wear your heart out on your sleeve?
Are you scared of me?
'Cause I'm scared the bomb gonna take me away

Oh, but I really don't know what I got to say
Alright, alright, alright, alright!
1-2-3, are you too scared to dance for me?

Bite the bullet or tug my sleeve?
Or are you scared out on your own two feet?
We really ain't that different, you and me

'Cause I'm scared the storm gonna take me away
But I really don't know what I got to say

Oh, alright, hold on, hold on, hold on
Cry, if you gonna cry
Come on, cry with me
Cry, if you gonna cry
Come on, cry with me
You ain't alone
Just let me be your ticket home

Alabama Shakes is an American rock band formed in Athens, Alabama, United States in 2009. The group consists of lead singer Brittany Howard, guitarist Heath Fogg, bassist Zac Cockrell, and drummer Steve Johnson.

Here is some background information on Alabama Shakes from the Hold On Songfacts: The R&B-inspired Rock band Alabama Shakes originated when lead singer/guitarist Brittany Howard approached bassist Zac Cockrell during a high school psychology class in Athens, Alabama and the pair began meeting after school to write songs. Howard and Cockrell then approached Punk-Rock drummer Steve Johnson, who was working at a local music store, to join the band. The trio recorded some of their songs in a studio in Decatur, Alabama and subsequently recruited guitarist Heath Fogg on his return to Athens from college in Tuscaloosa. Originally christened "The Shakes," the band later renamed themselves The Alabama Shakes in order to differentiate themselves from other bands with their original name.

The Alabama foursome gained widespread media attention after releasing a self-titled four-song EP in September 2011 and Rough Trade Records in the United Kingdom and ATO Records in the United States signed them two months later. Hold On was released as the first single from their debut album, Boys & Girls . Read more on Last.fm.
