Sweet Home Alabama

A Southern rock anthem from *Second Helping*, 1974, celebrating Alabama with a catchy riff.

Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin

Singing songs about the Southland
I miss Alabamy once again

Chorus

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue

Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I’m coming home to you

In Birmingham they love the governor (boo, boo, boo)
Now we all did what we could do

Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth

Chorus

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue

Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I’m coming home to you

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they’ve been known to pick a song or two

Lord, they get me off so much
They pick me up when I’m feeling blue

Chorus

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue

Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I’m coming home to you
