Alabama

Alabama Blues -Various Artists
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 cant 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 tryinto take my freedom away from me
