Letra de Birmingham, Alabama

Daddy worked a dollar 25 till he died Company paid the undertaker, uh mama cried Jesus what's gonna happen now, she started to pray Jesus said: You'll be shovlin' coal till your dyin' day In Birmingham Alabama, In Birmingham Alabama Sister called last Cremacy from old New Orleans Telling us she's a working girl, you know what she mean County said little brother Have to start school comes the fall Tell he gets him a pair of shoes Won't be no school at all In Birmingham Alabama In Birmingham Alabama Mama tell me get yourself a wife Being alone ain't no fun More then likely mother knows Her days are about gone Nobody's home now to take care for her child Children havin' a way of getting older after awhile In Birmingham Alabama, In Birmingham Alabama
