Alabam

(Lloyd Copas)



Well, I went to a Turkey roast down the street

And the people down there are eatin' like wild geese

So I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam

Well you talk about your people havin' a lot of time

Eatin' up their chickens and drinkin' their wine

I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam.

Now some folks say that a tramp won't steal

But I cought three in my corn field

I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam

Well, one had a bushel and one had a peck

And one had a roast' near tied around his neck

I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam.

Well, there comes Sal walkin' down the street

With the run down shoes tied on her feet

I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam

Well, hello Sal now how are you

With the run down slipper and tore up shoe

I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam.



When I get ready to leave this earth

I'm goin' back to my money's worth

I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam

I'm goin' back to Alabam...
