ALABAMA GETAWAY – Grateful Dead

Intro.: [E – D] [C]

 
 
[A]Thirty two teeth in a jawbone
Alabama tryin for none
[E]Before I have to hit him
[D]I hope he's got the sense to run [C]
Reason those poor girls love him
Promise them everything
Why they all believe him?
He wears a big diamond ring
[A]Alabama getaway, getaway
[D]Alabama getaway, getaway
[E]Only way to please me
[D]Just sit down with me and walk away [C]
Majordomo Billy Bojangals
Sat down and had a drink with me
Said: "What about Alabama
that keeps a-coming back to me".

I heard to plea in the courthouse
Witness box began to rock and rye
Forty-nine sister states  

All Alabama in their eyes

Alabama getaway, getaway …

Major said: “Why don't we give him
rope enough to hang himself?”
No need to worry the jury
They’ll prob’ly take care of themselves

Twenty-third Psalm Major Domo
reserve me a table for three
Down in the Valley of the Shadow
just you, Alabama and me

Alabama getaway …
