Alabama Getaway

Thirty two teeth in a jawbone

Alabama cryin for none

Before I have to hit him

I hope he's got the sense to run

Reason those poor girls love him

Promise them anything

Reason they believe him

He wears a big diamond ring

Alabama getaway

Alabama getaway

Only way to please me

Turn around and leave

and walk away

Majordomo Billy Bojangles

Sit down and have a drink with me

What's this about Alabame

Keeps comin back to me?

Heard your plea in the courthouse

Jurybox began to rock and rise

Forty-nine sister states all had

Alabama in their eyes

Alabama getaway

Alabama getaway

Only way to please me

Turn around and leave

and walk away

Why don't we just give Alabama

rope enough to hang himself?

Ain't no call to worry the jury

His kind takes care of itself

Twenty-third Psalm Majordomo

reserve me a table for three

in the Valley of the Shadow

just you, Alabama and me

Alabama getaway

Alabama getaway

Only way to please me

turn around and leave

and walk away
