Going to Move to Alabama - Charley Patton

Written by：J. Jackson

I'm gonna move to Alabama

I'm gonna move to Alabama

I'm gonna move to Alabama

Make Georgia be your home

Ahhh

She's long and tall

When she looks at me makes a panther squall

I have to move to Alabama

I have to move to Alabama

I have to move to Alabama

To make Georgia be your home

I'm going to show you common women

How I feel

Go get me another woman

Before I leave

That I will move to Alabama

Said I will move to Alabama

Said I will move to Alabama

Make Georgia be your home

Say mama got the washboard

My sister got the tub

My brother got the whiskey

Mama got the jug

I'm gonna move to Alabama

I'm a move to Alabama

I'm a move to Alabama

Make Georgia be your home

Well these evil women

Sure make me tight

Got a handful of give my mouthful of much obliged

You must've been to Alabama

You must've been to Alabama

You must've been to Alabama

To make Georgia be your home

Well I got a woman

She's long and tall

But when she wiggles

She makes a panther squall

She gonna move to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

To make Georgia be your home

Say mama and papa

Going to work

Left my sister standing at the watering trough

Well have you been to Louisiana

Have you been to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

To make Georgia be your home

My mama told me

Never lose a woman like she can't love you

Well have you been to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

To make georgia be your home

I got up this morning

My hat in my hand

Didn't have no other brown

Didn't have know a man

I know have been to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

Have you been to Alabama

To make Georgia be your home
