Intro

Verse 1

Got a wife, got a family,

Earn my livin' with my hand.

I'm a roller, in a steel mill,

In down-town Birming-ham.

Verse 2

My daddy, was a barber,

And a most un-sightly man.

He was born in In Tusca-loosa,

But he died right here in Birming-ham.

Chorus 1

Birmingham, Birmingham,

The greatest city in Ala-bam'.

You can travel 'cross this en-tire land,

But there ain't no place like Birming-ham.

Interlude

Bridge 1

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 al-right with me.

Verse 4

Got a big black dog, whose name is Dan,

Lives in my backyard, in Birmingham.

He's the meanest dog in Alabam';

Get 'em Dan!

Chorus 2

Birmingham, Birmingham,

The greatest city in Ala-bam'.

You can travel 'cross this en-tire land,

But there ain't no place like Birming-ham.
