CRAZY ‘BOUT ALABAMA
MICHAEL RENO HARRELL

INTRO: G Bm C G D

G                Bm
OUT OF MATCHES, OUT OF SMOKES
C                             G      D
A DOLLAR AND A NICKEL BETWEEN ME AND BROKE
C               D           G                   C
DUST OFF THAT GRAVEL ROAD’S ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU CHOKE
           G      D     G
STILL I’M CRAZY ‘BOUT ALABAMA


FORTY-TWO ACRES, ALL DRIED UP
A WORE OUT TRACTOR AND A BLOWED UP TRUCK
IT’S ABOUT TOO LATE FOR A CHANGE OF LUCK
STILL I’M CRAZY ‘BOUT ALABAMA


CHORUS
 C                 D            G      C
FROM THE TENNESSEE RIVER TO THE MOBILE BAY
G                            D
IT’S THE HEART OF DIXIE, LOOK AWAY, LOOK AWAY
C                  D            G      C
DIXIE’S HEARTBEAT GETS A LITTLE WEAKER EVERYDAY
          G      D    G
STILL I’M CRAZY ‘BOUT ALABAMA

TOOK A JOB IN A STEEL MILL IN BIRMINGHAM
WENT BACK TO FARMING WHEN THE STEEL LEFT TOWN
IT’S HARD AS STEEL TO PULL A LIVING FROM THIS GROUND
STILL I’M CRAZY ‘BOUT ALABAMA

CHORUS

HARDEES AND WALMARTS AND INTERSTATE HOTELS
WHERE THERE USED TO BE NOTHING BUT COTTON FIELDS
IT’S GOT SO THIS PLACE LOOKS LIKE EVERYPLACE ELSE
STILL I’M CRAZY ‘BOUT ALABAMA
