Alabama Blues Songtext
von J.B. Lenoir

I never will go back to Alabama
That is not the place for me

I never will go back to Alabama
That is not the place for me

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

I never will love Alabama
Alabama seem to never have loved poor me


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

My brother was taken up for my mother
And a police officer shot him down

I can't help but to sit down and cry sometime
Think about how my poor brother lost his life

Alabama, Alabama
Why you want to be so mean?

Alabama, Alabama
Why you want to be so mean?


You got my people behind a barbwire fence
Now you tryna take my freedom away from me
