Birmingham Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Got a wife
Got a family
Earn my living with my hand
I'm a roller in a steel mill
In downtown Birmingham

My daddy was a barber
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
There ain't no place like Birmingham

[Verse 2]
My 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 and his name is Dan
He lives in my backyard in Birmingham
He's the meanest dog in Alabam'
Get 'em, Dan!

[Chorus]
