The preacher got drunk
He threw his bible down
He told the congregation
I’m Alabama bound
I’m Alabama bound
I’m Alabama bound
IIf the train don’t run
I’ve got a mule to ride
I’ve been in your city
I’ve been in your twon
I’ve been in the mountains
With the blues all around
I jumped in the river
And I started to drown
I spied a red-headed mama
Oh lord I couldn’t go down

IIf the train don’t run

I’ve been in the mountains
With the blues all around
I jumped in the river
And I started to drown
I spied a red-headed mama
Oh lord I couldn’t go down
