Birmingham

Got a wife got a family earn my livin' 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

Birmingham, Birmingham

The greatest city in Alabam'

You can travel 'cross this entire land

There ain't no place like Birmingham

Got a wife named Mary but she's called Marie

We live in a three room house with a pepper tree

And I work all day in the factory that's alright with me

Got a big black dog his name is Dan

Lives in my backyard in Birmingham

He is the meanest dog in Alabam', get 'em Dan

Birmingham, Birmingham

The greatest city in Alabam'

You can travel 'cross this entire land

There ain't no place like Birmingham
