Lyrics:

Got a wife, got a family
Earn my living with my hand
I'm a roller in a steel mill
Downtown Birmingham

My daddy was a barber
A most unsightly man
He was born in Tuscaloosa
He died right here in Birmingham

Birmingham, Birmingham
The greatest city in Alabam'
You can travel 'cross this entire land
There ain't no place like Birmingham

My wife's named Mary but she's called Marie
We live in a three room house with a pepper tree
I work all day in the factory
That's alright with me

Got a big black dog, his name is Dan
He lives in my backyard in Birmingham
The meanest dog in Alabam'
Get 'em, Dan

Birmingham, Birmingham
The greatest city in Alabam'
You can travel 'cross this entire land
There ain't no place like Birmingham
