[Intro]
Talk to me, Hugh
Yeah, I'm going back too boys
[Chorus: Lead Belly & The Golden Gate Quartet]
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
[Verse 1: Lead Belly (The Golden Gate Quartet), both]
Don't you leave me here (now don't you leave me here)
Don't you leave me here (now don't you leave me here)
Don't you leave me here (now don't you leave me here)
Don't you leave me here (now don't you leave me here)
And if you will go anyhow
Just leave a dime for bail
Leave me a dime for bail
[Chorus: Lead Belly & The Golden Gate Quartet]
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
[Verse 2: Lead Belly (The Golden Gate Quartet), both]
You oughta be like me (you oughta be like me)
You oughta be like me (you oughta be like me)
You oughta be like me (you oughta be like me)
You can turn your good heart just
And let that King Kong be
[Chorus: Lead Belly & The Golden Gate Quartet]
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
[Verse 3: Lead Belly (The Golden Gate Quartet)]
The preachers in the stand (the preachers in the stand)
Pass his hat around (pass his hat around)
Singing brothers and sisters shoot your money to me
[Chorus: Lead Belly & The Golden Gate Quartet]
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
[Verse 4: Lead Belly (The Golden Gate Quartet)]
Oh that preacher preach (oh that preacher preach)
Sisters, they turned around (sisters, they turned around)
Yes n' the deacons in the corner, holler sweet gal
[Chorus: Lead Belly & The Golden Gate Quartet]
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
And if the train don't stop and turn around
I'm Alabama-bound
I'm Alabama-bound
