Birmingham  

Intro:         

                 
Got a wife, got a family
                       
Earn my livin' with my hand
      
I'm a roller in a steel mill
    
In downtown Birmingham

My daddy was a barber
And a most unsightly man
He was born in tuscaloosa
But he died right here in Birmingham

Chorus:
           
Birmingham, Birmingham
                     
The greatest city in alabam'
                                 
You can travel 'cross this entire land
                                
But there's no place like Birmingham

Wife's named mary but she's called marie
We live in a three room house with a pepper tree
I work all day in the factory
That's alright with me

Got a big black dog
Whose name is dan
Lives in my backyard in birmingham
He is the meanest dog in alabam'
Get 'em dan

Chorus
