|
Got a wife, got a family |
|
Earn my livin' with my hand |
|
I'm a roller in a steel mill |
|
In downtown birmingham |
|
My daddy was a barber |
|
And a most unsightly man |
|
He was born in tuscaloosa |
|
But he died right here in birmingham |
|
Chorus |
|
Birmingham, birmingham |
|
The greatest city in alabam' |
|
You can travel 'cross this entire land |
|
But there's no place like birmingham |
|
Wife's named mary |
|
But she's called marie |
|
We live in a three room house |
|
With a pepper tree |
|
I work all day in the factory |
|
That's alright with me |
|
Got a big black dog |
|
Whose name is dan |
|
Lives in my backyard in birmingham |
|
He is the meanest dog in alabam' |
|
Get 'em dan |
|
Chorus |
