sonnerie téléphone portable pour Alabama

Oh alabama
The devil fools
With the best laid plan.
Swing low alabama
You got spare change
You got to feel strange
And now the moment
Is all that it meant.
Alabama, you got
The weight on your shoulders
That's breaking your back.
Your cadillac
Has got a wheel in the ditch
And a wheel on the track
Oh alabama
Banjos playing
Through the broken glass
Windows down in alabama.

(song is interupted after which there is some studio talk and then the song resumes again)

See the old folks
Tied in white ropes
Hear the banjo.
Don't it take you down home?

(song is again interupted and the song "god bless america, my home sweet home" is introduced)

God bless america.

Land that i love
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies ,
To the oceans, white with foam

(song fades out while a david crosby makes some remarks, after that you hear a richard nixon speach and the songs kicks back in again)

Alabama, you got
The weight on your shoulders
That's breaking your back.
Your cadillac
Has got a wheel in the ditch
And a wheel on the track
Oh alabama.
Can i see you
And shake your hand.
Make friends down in alabama.
I'm from a new land
I come to you
And see all this ruin
What are you doing alabama?
You got the rest of the union
To help you along
What's going wrong?
