Lyrics Neil Young – Alabama
Text:
Oh Alabama
The devil fools
With the best laid plan
Swing low Alabama
You got the spare change
You got to feel strange
And now the moment
Is all that it meant
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 robes
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?
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?
