Alabama Bound Lyrics by Mance Lipscomb

0

Alabama bound
Alabama bound
If the boat don't sink and neither turn around
I'm Alabama bound
Well, the preacher's in the pulpit
Just a-waving his hand
And the sisters way back in the amen corners
Hollering, "Go on, man!"
What did the rooster say
To the little red hen?
"Want you to meet me down to the old barnyard
'Bout half past ten."
Well, the rooster crowed
Hen flew on the fence
I can see in your deep blue eyes
You got to be convinced
Well, the rooster crowed
And the hеn replied
Said, "I can see in your deep blue еyes
You got to rise and fly."
Well, the rooster crowed
And the hen flew down
Wanna be a man of mine
You got to run me down
Well, I'm going up north
And going to stay
Got a long tall teasing brown
Gonna pay my way
Well, the preacher preached
All the sisters moaned
You want this collection I got
You got to follow me home
When he got through preaching
Laid his Bible down
Said, "Sisters, I'm a missionary but for the church
I'm Alabama bound."
Don't you leave me here
Don't leave me here
But if you leave me here, oh darling dear
Leave a dime for beer
