Sweet Home Alabama

Lynyrd Skynyrd


Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the Southland
I miss Alabama once again and I think it’s a sin, yes

Instrumental

Well, I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard ol’ Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don’t need him around anyhow

Chorus
   Sweet home Alabama
   Where the skies are so blue
   Sweet home Alabama
   Lord, I’m coming home to you

Lead Solo

In Birmingham they love the governor, boo hoo hoo
Now we all did what we could do
Now Water gate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth

Repeat Chorus
Here I come, Alabama

Lead Solo

Ah ah ah
Alabama, ah ah ah
Alabama, ah ah ah
Alabama, ah ah ah
Alabama

Now Muscle Shoals has got the swampers
And they’ve been known to pick a song or two (Yes, they do!)
Lord, they get me off so much
They pick me up when I’m feeling blue, now how about you?

Repeat Chorus

Sweet home Alabama, oh, sweet home baby
Where the skies are so blue and the governor’s true
Sweet home Alabama, Lordy
Lord, I’m coming home to you, yeah yeah
