ALABAM'

Well I went to a turkey roast down the street
And the people down there eatin' like wild geese
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam

Talk about the people havin' a whale of a time
Eatin' up the chicken and a-drinkin' up wine
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam

Some folks say that a tramp won't steal
But I caught three in my corn field
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam

One had a bushel 'n one had a peck
One had a roastin' ear tied around his neck
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam

Now there comes Sal walkin' down the street
With her run down shoes tied on her feet
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam

Well hello Sal, don't I know you
With your run down slipper and a tore up shoe
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam

When I get ready to leave this earth
I'm gonna look back to my money's worth
I'm on my way, I'm goin' back, to Alabam
