In The Heart Of Alabama lyrics

In the heart of Alabama
Where cotton
Was giving crop
There stood our house
Under a red-hot sky
I loved this beautiful land
From the first day on
I always wanted to live here
Here my dreams
Were coming true

The invaders from
The North came
As they wanted to take our land
They didn't do it for the slaves
They just did it for the Gold
They burned our house
And they killed out Guard
They raped our women saying:
"We brought your Freedom back"

The land of Dixie - it's our home
The place where we belong
The land of the Dixie
Just leave us alone
We don't want you here
