I'm Alabama Bound
Papa Charlie Jackson
Stood on the corner: Feet got soaking wet
I was hollering and crying to every brown: To hell I'm
At
I'm alabama bound: I'm alabama bound
Then if you want me to love you babe: You got to leave
This town
When the rooster crowed: The hen looked around
Said if you want me to love you babe: You got to run
Me down
Look here pretty mama: Who can your regular be
Says the reason I'm *blacking out stalling* babe: You
Been so good to me
There's a preacher in the pulpit: Bible in his hand
And the sisters was back in the amen corner: Hollering
That's my man
Now the boat's up the river: Can't be floated down
But she's *way on south* now darling babe: Alabama
Bound
Just like a beefsteak beefsteak: Ain't got no bone
Then if a man like a good brownskin woman now babe: He
Ain't got no home
Elder green's in town: And he's going around
And he's telling all the sisters and the brothers he
Meets: He's alabama bound
Now don't you leave me here: Don't you leave me here
Just before you and your partner get ready to go:
Leave a dime for beer
