Papa Charlie Jackson - I'm Alabama Bound lyrics

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
