Big wheels keep on turning
Carrying me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the southland
I miss ol' bama once again
And I think it's a sin, yes

Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow

* Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

In Birmingham they love the gov' nor
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth

(* Repeat)

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how about you?

(* Repeat 2 times with ad lib)
