Lyrics
Chorus
I’m Alabamy bound
There’ll be no “Heebie Jeebies” hangin’ ’round
Just gave the meanest ticket man on earth
All I’m worth
To put my tootsies in an upper berth
Just hear that choo choo sound
I know that soon we’re goin’ to cover ground
And then I’ll holler so the world will know
“Here I go” I’m Alabamy bound
Patter
I can hear that choo choo whistle blow
Watch that engine when we start to go
Now we’re in Baltimore
Knockin’ at Dixie’s door
What’s that, Bill? We passed that before
Fields o’ cotton tell me where I am
Hear that feller yellin’ “Alabam”
Mammy, Mammy
Get your kisses ready for yo’ honey lamb
Chorus
I’m Alabamy bound
There’ll be no “Heebie Jeebies” hangin’ ’round
Just gave the meanest ticket man on earth
All I’m worth
To put my tootsies in an upper berth
Just hear that lucky hound
To have someone to put my arms around
That’s why I’m shoutin’ for the world to know
“Here I go” I’m Alabamy bound
