"Alabamy Bound" opens with::"I'm Alabamy bound":"I'm Alabamy bound" :"They'll be no heebie-jeebies hanging 'round":"Just gave the meanest ticket man on earth":"All I'm worth to put my tootsies in an upper berth ":"Just hear the choo-choo sound":"I know that soon we're gonna cover ground":"And then I'll holler so the world will know" :"Here I go," (repeat)
