"Alabama Getaway" lyrics

"Alabama Getaway"

Thirty-two teeth in a jawbone
Alabama trying for none
Before I have to hit him
I hope he's got the sense to run
The reason the poor girls love him
Promise them a-everything
Why they all believe him?
He wears a big diamond ring

Alabama get away, get away, Alabama get away, get away
Only way to please me just sit down and leave and walk away

Majordomo Billy Bojangles
Sat down and had a drink with me
Says, "what about Alabama it keeps it coming back to me?"
I heard your plea in the courthouse
Witness box begin to rock and rise
Forty-nine sister states had Alabama in their eyes
Run run

Alabama get away, get away, Alabama get away, get away
Only way to please me just sit down and leave and walk away

Twenty-third Psalm Majordomo
Reserve me a table for three
Down in the Valley of the Shadow
Just you Alabama and me
Major said, "why don't we give him rope enough to hang himself"
No need to worry the jury they'll probably take care of themselves

Alabama get away, get away, Alabama get away, get away
Only way to please me just turn around and leave and walk away

Alabama get away, get away, Alabama get away, get away
Only way to please me just turn around and leave and walk away
