Crazy In Alabama
作词:Campbell Jamae Kathryn, Walker Kenya Slaughter
I heard Odessa's mind was sick That she was crazier than hell The police caught her turning tricks Down at the Blue and Gray motel Odessa was the neighbor's maid She had ten mouths at home to feed
They bussed her kids to Birmingham And put her in the county jail Nobody seemed to give a damn They say a white man posted bail My dad said not to breathe a word I told my brother all I heard
And the train of change Was coming fast to my hometown We had the choice to climb on board Or get run down
It was crazy, grown men fights Over segregation and civil rights Martin Luther King, KKK George C. Wallace and LBJ When the National Guard came in I thought the world was gonna end It was crazy in Alabama

My momma yelled child get inside Drew the drapes and locked the doors We watched the marchers passing by Felt the rumble heard the roar And they all held hands they sang and wept And freedom rang in every step
'Cause the train of change Was marching through my hometown We had the choice to climb on board Or get run down
It was crazy, there were grown men fights Over segregation and civil rights Martin Luther King and the KKK George C. Wallace and LBJ When the National Guard came in I thought the world was gonna end It was crazy in Alabama
And I heard Odessa's mind was sick That she was crazier than hell
