Alabama Sundown lyrics

The cold December wind seems bent on rockin' New York City The town that's got me down to my last dime And everywhere I go, the people seem in such a hurry To keep this Mobile girl from feelin' fine Chorus: Lord, what I'd give to see an Alabama sundown The sun just seemed to drop in Mobile Bay New York town has got a gifted way to keep a girl down But that never was the Mobile way, no, no That never was the Mobile way A flashing sign says that you can rent a bed for just a dollar In anybody's town, that price is cheap It's a shame to know a girl would ever fall down to my standards 'Cause I need ninety cents to go to sleep Repeat Chorus I felt so big the day I left that Mobile couldn't hold me I thought there had to be a better way But if I could find that man that first called Lady Luck a lady That gentleman would surely learn to pray Repeat Chorus Twice & Fade
