GUEST,# Lyr Req: I Like to Live in Alabam (6) RE: Lyr Req: I Like to Live in Alabam 08 Apr 21


In conclusion, here are the words to a song sung by the song leader, Dwight Crigger. It is found in the little yellow handbook, “Alabama Sings,” a song I was not familiar with but very appropriate for the occasion.

    “I like to live in Alabam’, Mobile, Selma, Birmingham, Anywhere in that old state, Where good neighbors congregate; I like to live in Alabam’, Mobile, Selma, Birmingham.”

    “I like to eat in Alabam’, Hot corn bread and country ham, Grits and gravy, nice fresh beans, Black-eyed peas and turnip greens; I like to eat in Alabam’, Hot corn bread and country ham.”

    “I like to work in Alabam’, Friendship here is not a sham; In a hole, just give a shout, Someone’s mule will pull you out; I like to work in Alabama’, Friendship here is not a sham.”

    “Here is the right spot where I am, Home, sweet home, old Alabam’, Where folks live and work and play, In the sun most every day; Here is the spot right where I am, An-da-lu-sia, Alabam’!”
