Kate Campbell - Crazy In Alabama lyrics
Lyrics to Crazy In Alabama : I heard Odessa’s mind was sick That she was crazier than hell The police caught her turning tricks Down at the Blue and Gray motel Odessa was the neighbor’s maid She had ten mouths at home to feed They bussed her kids to Birmingham And put her in the county jail Nobody seemed to give a damn They say a white man posted bail My dad said not to breathe a word I told my brother all I heard And the train of change Was coming fast to my hometown We had the choice to climb on board Or get run down It was crazy there were grown men fights Over segregation and civil rights Martin Luther King and the KKK George C. Wallace and LBJ And when the National Guard came in I thought the world was gonna end It was crazy in Alabama Down at the corner Dairy Dip They sold soft ice cream for a dime White people ordered from the front The side was for the colored line We all were told they had their place Because they were a different race We spent hot summer afternoons At the public swimming pool Where the privileged and the few Played on their island of cool blue Brown children watched outside the fence It never made one lick of sense But the train of change Was coming fast to my hometown We had the choice to climb on board Or get run down My momma yelled child get inside Drew the drapes and locked the doors We watched the marchers passing by Felt the rumble heard the roar They all held hands they sang and wept And freedom rang in every step Cause the train of change Was marching through my hometown We had the choice to climb on board Or get run down [ Crazy In Alabama Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com/ ] |
