Letra de Shout Bamalama

Way down in Alabama
I'm shoutin' Bamalama
Way down in Louisiana
Well, well, well, nobody gonna set him down
Lord have mercy on my soul
How many chickens have I stole
One last night and the night before
I'm going back and try to get 10, 11 more
Startin' to get 'em and I
I love a chicken, baby
Way down in Alabama
Well, well, well nobody's gonna set him down
9 feet, 10 feet, goin' t'ward the hill
9 feet 7 on on a 10 feet kill
10 feet turn around on a 9 feet fence
His teeth fell out, but his tongue stayed in
It's gettin' to sayin' somethin'
He's gettin' scared, baby
Way down in Alabama
Well, well, well, nobody gonna set him down
[Instrumental bridge]
Leo Demarket rode a line one day
A bad little fella comin' down the way
We were talkin' 'bout the family, its a cryin' shame
He tell ya, "mother is workin' on the chain gang"
She bustin' his bricks now
She workin' hard, baby
Way down in Alabama
Well, well, well, nobody gonna set him down
The preacher and the deacon were prayin' one day
Along come a bear comin' down that way
The preacher told the deacon to say a prayer
He said, "Lord, a prayer won't kill this bear
We gotta run for it"
We gotta make it, baby
Way down in Alabama
Well, well, well, nobody's gonna set him down
Shout 'Bamalama
Way down in Alabama
It's close to Louisiana
Well, well, well, nobody's gonna set him down
[Jam outro]
We gonna shout it
We gonna shake it
