Blame it on Alabama

People notice how I talk

The redneck in the way I walk

Got family in jail

And all my friends are good at raising hell

Got one late night drunk tattoo

Got two packs of smokes to burn through

The night is young, so am I

Seems like that’s my excuse everytime

If anybody starts to wonder why

Don’t blame it on my mama

Cause Lord knows she tried

Don’t blame it on the preacher man

He tried to save my life

Don’t blame it on my ex

He tried his best to make me an honest woman

There's only one thing I can really think of

Blame it on Alabama

Love a southern sunset with moonshine

Love having a damn good time

On a Friday night in the pines

We all unwind

Put that day on ice

And if that's something you don't like

Don’t blame it on my mama

Cause Lord knows she tried

Don’t blame it on the preacher man

He tried to save my life

Don’t blame it on my ex

He tried his best to make me an honest woman

There's only one thing I can really think of

Blame it on Alabama

That's right

Blame it on that Muscle Shoals from Tuscaloosa to that Gulf Coast

Don’t blame it on my mama

Cause Lord knows she tried

Don’t blame it on the preacher man

He tried to save my life

Don’t blame it on my ex

He tried his best to make me an honest woman

There's only one thing I can really think of

Blame it on

Blame it on

Blame it on Alabama

Alabama

Sweet home Alabama
