And a wheel on the track
That's breaking your back
And a wheel on the track
Hear the banjo
Make friends down in Alabama
That's breaking your back
Oh, Alabama
Swing low Alabama
You got the rest of the union to help you along
Banjos playing through the broken glass
What are you doing Alabama?
Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch
And now the moment is all that it meant
Can I see you and shake your hand?
Oh Alabama
You got the spare change
Alabama, you got the weight on your shoulders
See the old folks tied in white ropes
Alabama, you got the weight on your shoulders
You got to feel strange
Windows down in Alabama
Your Cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch
I'm from a new land
I come to you and see all this ruin
Don't it take you down home?
