Old Alabama / Dan "B.B." Barnes and Group (Axe Song)
Da / From : Alan Lomax – Negro Prison Blues And Songs - 1947
Recorded live at the Mississippi and Louisiana State Penitentiaries
by Alan Lomax
Old Alabama joins the state of Florida
Old Alabama joins the state of Florida
At Mobile, Lord-y, at Mobile

Old Alabama is a hog-killing country
Old Alabama is a hog-killing country
Every Fall, Lord-y, every Fall

Did you hear about that waterboy getting drownded
Did you hear about that waterboy getting drownded
Mobile Bay, Lord-y, Mobile Bay

Did you hear about the men all gonna leave you
Did you hear about the men all gonna leave you
Did you hear about the men all gonna leave you
Next pay day, Lord-y, next pay day

Did you hear about Louella Wallace
Did you hear about Louella Wallace
Did you hear about Louella Wallace
Poor gal dead, Lord-y, poor gal dead
