I've never been so blue as |
|
I am now in this old town |
|
You don't know how homesick |
|
I am to see the streets of my hometown |
|
I left in search of greener grass but oh what a fool |
|
I am There's just no place that |
|
I have found with greener grass than |
|
Birmingham |
|
Birmingham |
|
Alabam a mighty pretty town the town from |
|
I am And I'm gonna settle down in |
|
Birmingham |
|
It's a town |
|
I'll soon be seein' then |
|
I'll feel like a human bein' |
|
I'm southworth they're gonna pitch my tens in |
|
Birmingham [ piano - guitar ] |
|
I'm gonna buy some big red roses for my girl when |
|
I come home |
|
There's nothing good enough to bring the little girl who wears my ring |
|
And I'm goin' there just as soon as |
|
I can back to my hometown |
|
And I'll never say goodbye to them that little girl in |
|
Birmingham |
