The cold December wind seems bent on rockin' New York City
The town that's got me down to my last dime And everywhere
I go, the people seem in such a hurry To keep this Mobile girl
from feelin' fine Chorus: Lord, what I'd give to see
an Alabama sundown The sun just seemed to drop in Mobile Bay New
York town has got a gifted way to keep a girl down But that never
was the Mobile way, no, no That never was the Mobile way A
flashing sign says that you can rent a bed for just a dollar In
anybody's town, that price is cheap It's a shame to
know a girl would ever fall down to my standards 'Cause I
need ninety cents to go to sleep Repeat Chorus I felt so big the
day I left that Mobile couldn't hold me I thought there had
to be a better way But if I could find that man that first
called Lady Luck a lady That gentleman would surely learn to
pray Repeat Chorus Twice & Fade
