Lyrics

0:21Oh Alabama
0:27The devil fools with the best laid plan
0:33Swing low Alabama
0:40You got spare change
0:43You got to feel strange
0:46And now the moment is all that it meant
0:52Alabama you got the weight on your shoulders
0:58That's breaking your back
1:05Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch
1:11And a wheel on the track
1:19Oh Alabama
1:25Banjos playing through the broken glass
1:32Windows down in Alabama
1:38See the old folks tied in white ropes
1:45Hear the banjo
1:47Don't it take you down home
2:29Alabama you got the weight on your shoulders
2:35That's breaking your back
2:42Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch
2:48And a wheel on the track
2:56Oh Alabama
3:02Can I see you and shake your hand
3:09Make friends down in Alabama
3:15I'm from a new land
3:18I come to you and see all this ruin
3:24What are you doing Alabama
3:29You got the rest of the union to help you along
3:40What's going wrong
Oh Alabama
The devil fools with the best laid plan
Swing low Alabama
You got spare change
You got to feel strange
And now the moment is all that it meant
Alabama you got the weight on your shoulders
That's breaking your back
Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch
And a wheel on the track
Oh Alabama
Banjos playing through the broken glass
Windows down in Alabama
See the old folks tied in white ropes
Hear the banjo
Don't it take you down home
Alabama you got the weight on your shoulders
That's breaking your back
Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch
And a wheel on the track
Oh Alabama
Can I see you and shake your hand
Make friends down in Alabama
I'm from a new land
I come to you and see all this ruin
What are you doing Alabama
You got the rest of the union to help you along
What's going wrong
