Alabama Blues
I never will go back to Alabama, that is not the place for me [2x]You know they killed my sister and my brother,
and the whole world let them peoples go down there free
I never will love Alabama, Alabama seem to never have loved poor me [2x]
Oh God I wish you would rise up one day,
lead my peoples to the land of pea'
My brother was taken up for my mother, and a police officer shot him down [2x]
I can't help but to sit down and cry sometime,
think about how my poor brother lost his life
Alabama, Alabama, why you wanna be so mean [2x]
You got my people behind a barbwire fence,
now you tryin' to take my freedom away from me
