Alabam (1960)
Well, I went to a turkey roast down the street
People down there eatin like wild geese
Iâm on my way. Iâm going back. To Alabam
Talk about the people having a whale of a time
Eatin up the chicken & drinkin the wine
Iâm on my way Iâm going back to Alabam
Now, some folks say that a tramp wonât steal
But I found three in my cornfield
Iâm on my way Iâm going back to Alabam
One had a bushel the other had a peck
One had a roasted ear tied around his neck
Iâm on my way Iâm going back to Alabam
Here comes Sal walking down the street
With the run down shoes tied on her feet
Good morning honey stand over there baby get over there now
Hello Sal, I know you
With the run down slipper & the tore up shoe
Iâm on my way Iâm going back to Alabam
When I get ready to leave this earth
Iâm gonna look back to my moneyâs worth
Iâm on my way Iâm going back to Alabam
Yes Iâm going back to Alabam
