The Cats Got The Measles - Papa Charlie Jackson
Stood on the corner feet got soaking wet
I was hollering and crying to every brown to hell I'm at
I'm Alabama bound I'm Alabama bound
Then if you want me to love you babe
You got to leave this town
When the rooster crowed the hen looked around
Said if you want me to love you babe you got to run me down
Look here pretty mama who can your regular be
Says the reason I'm blacking out stalling babe
You been so good to me
There's a preacher in the pulpit bible in his hand
And the sisters was back in the amen corner
Hollering that's my man
I'm Alabama bound I'm Alabama bound
Then if you want me to love you babe
You got to leave this town
Now the boat's up the river can't be floated down
But she's way on south now darling babe Alabama bound
Just like a beefsteak beefsteak ain't got no bone
Then if a man like a good brownskin woman now babe
He ain't got no home
I'm Alabama bound I'm Alabama bound
Then if you want me to love you babe
You got to leave this town
Elder green's in town and he's going around
And he's telling all the sisters and the brothers he meets
He's Alabama bound
Now don't you leave me here don't you leave me here
Just before you and your partner get ready to go
Leave a dime for beer
