Birmingham Songtext
von Tommy Collins

I′ve never been so blue as I am now in this old town
You don't know how homesick I am to see the streets of my hometown
I left in search of greener grass but oh what a fool I am
There′s just no place that I have found
With greener grass than Birmingham
Birmingham Alabam a mighty pretty town and a town what I am
And I'm gonna settle down in Birmingham
It's a town I′ll soon be a-seein′ then I'll feel like a human bein′
I'm southward bent gonna pitch my tent in Birmingham I′m gonna buy some big red roses for my girl when I come home
There's nothing good enough to bring the little girl who wears my ring
And I′m going there just as soon as I can back to my hometown
And I'll never say goodbye to them that little girl in Birmingham
Birmingham Alabam a mighty pretty town and a town what I am
And I'm gonna settle down in Birmingham
It′s a town I′ll soon be a-seein' then I′ll feel like a human bein'
I′m southward bent gonna pitch my tent in Birmingham
I'm southward bent gonna pitch my tent in Birmingham
