Sweet Home Alabama
(Ed King - Ronnie VanZant - Gary Rossington)
Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the Southland
I miss Alabamy once again
And I think its a sin, yes

Well I heard mister Young sing about her
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around anyhow

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
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Here I come Alabama

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
Now how about you?

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

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
Yea, yea Montgomery's got the answer

Hi there, Aeronaut! Good morning to you.

[dansangel]

Beautiful job and a great idea, (((((((Mama_Bear))))))))

I can come here, have fun, see all of my friends and *learn* something, too! What more could anyone want? :-)

I don't know if I'll be able to get back before you leave, (and I'm not sure what your schedule is) but, I wanted to wish you a wonderful and safe and spectacular journey "Down Under"!

[Mama_Bear]

Wow! Thanks for the lyrics. That was quick! :-)

[GailA]

Good Morning ALL

Coffee's on

[Mama_Bear]

I wanted to wish you a wonderful and safe and spectacular journey "Down Under"!

Thanks Dansy. I hope to be able to post a G'day to my Finest mates while I'm down there..... (a little Australian lingo. LOL.) I'm told there are cyber cafes everywhere in the big cities. :-)

My only concern is the 15 hour flight. I can't even contemplate what it's going to be like to be on a plane that long. My hope is to fall asleep immediately and wake up a few minutes later in Sydney. LOL.

[Mama_Bear]

Good morning, Gail. Coffee is exactly what I need. Thank you!

Good morning Mama and all. The stars sure fell on Alabama.

REAL state song of Alabama:

Broad the Stream whose name thou bearest
Grand thy Bigbee rolls along
Fair thy Coosa-Tallapoosa
Bold the Warrior, dark and strong
Goodlier than the land that Moses
Climbed lone Nebo's Mount to see
Alabama, Alabama
We will aye be true to thee

Brave and pure thy men and women
Better this than corn and wine
Make us worthy, God in Heaven
Of this goodly land of Thine

Where the perfumed south-wind whispers
Thy magnolia groves among
Softer than a mother's kisses
Sweeter than a mother's song
Where the golden jasmine trailing
Woos the treasure-laden bee
Alabama, Alabama
We will aye be true to thee

Wow!...... I'm Alabammy bound!

Morning, Temple Owl. Thanks for coming with us to Alabama. :-)

Hope you have a nice Memorial Day weekend.

Hi Leni. Thanks for locating and posting the real Alabama state song.

I was curious about what a Coosa-Tallapoosa was. Google answered my question. It's a river between Alabama and Georgia. What an interesting name. LOL.

[Mama_Bear]

Morning, Free. Cute calendar page today. :-)
