[Verse 1]
            E
I've got my pistols in my pockets boys
I'm Alabama bound
            A
I've got my pistols in my pockets boys
                 E
I'm Alabama bound
              B7
Well, I'm not looking for no trouble
                         E
But nobody dogs me around

[Verse 2]
          E
Well, I'm going to fetch my woman,
people
Tricities here I come
             A
Oh well, I'm going to fetch my woman,
people
                     E
Tricities here I come
                B7
Because she was raised up on that cornbread
                                         E
And I know that woman's gonnagive me some

[Bridge]
Give me some baby

[Verse 3]
            E
Oh when the kid hits Alabama, people
Don't you try and dog him around
               A
Oh when the kid hits Alabama, people
                                E
Don't you try and dog him around
               B7
Because if you people cause me trouble,
lord
                                      E
Then I've got to put you in the ground

[Verse 4]
            E
Well, I was born in Mississippi
Baby don't take any stuff from you
            A
Well, I was born in Mississippi
                                   E
And I don't take any stuff from you
         B7
And if I hit you on your head
                                       E
Boy, its got to make you black and blue

[Verse 5]
             E
Oh well, I'm goin' to Alabama
Got my pistols out by my side
           A
'Cause I'm ridin' to Alabama
                              E
With my pistols out by my side
       B7
'Cause down in Alabama you can run
But you sure can't hide
