Won't you come with me to Alabamy

Ought to taste her layer cake-y

Basements full of those berry jams

Hot cornbread and black-eyed peas

Walk on in with that Southern drawl
C F
'Cause that's what I like about the South

Sit down where they have those pretty queens

Honey when you tell me that you love me

Then how come you close your eyes
