Alabama Getaway
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter
Performer(s): Grateful Dead
and multiple other artists
32 teeth in a jawbone, Alabama trying for none
Before I have to hit him, I hope he's got the sense to run
Reason the poor girls love him, promise them everything
Why they all believe him?
He wears a big diamond ring
Alabama getaway, getaway
Alabama getaway, getaway
Only way to please me, ya just gotta leave and walk away
Major Domo Billy Bojangles, sit down and have a drink with me
"What's this about Alabama?
It keeps a coming back to me
Heard your plea in the courthouse
Witness box began to rock and rise
49 sister states all had Alabama in there eyes
Alabama getaway, getaway
Alabama getaway, getaway
Only way to please me, ya just gotta leave and walk away
Major said why don't we give him rope enough to hang himself?
No need to worry the jury, this kind takes care of themselves
23rd psalm Major Domo, reserve me a table for three
Down in the valley of the shadow, just you, Alabama, and me
Alabama getaway, getaway
Alabama getaway, getaway
Only way to please me, ya just gotta leave and walk away
