Lyrics

(Al kooper - ronnie vanzant - bob burns)

I've got my pistols in my pockets boys
I'm alabamy bound
I've got my pistols in my pockets boys, I'm
I'm alabamy bound
Well, I'm not looking for no trouble
But nobody dogs me 'round

Now well, I'm going to fetch my woman, people
Tri-cities here I come
Oh, well, I'm going to fetch my woman, people
Tri-cities here I come
'Cause she was raised up on that cornbread
And I know that woman give me some

Gimme some, babe..

Oh when the kid hits alabama, people
Don't you try to dog him 'round
Ah, when the kid hits alabama, people
Don't you try to dog him 'round
'Cause if you people cause me trouble
Lord, I've got to put you in the ground

Well, I was born in mississippi
Babe, don't take any stuff from you
Oh, I was born in mississippi
And I don't take any stuff from you
And if I hit you on your head
Boy, its got to make it black and blue

Ah well I go to alabama
I got my pistols out a by my side
Yes, I ride to alabama
With my pistols out a by my side
'Cause down in alabama
You can run, but you sure can't hide
