I Hate Alabama

Even turning my hearing aids up, only words I understood were "Hate Alabama", which were good enough for me!!
Heh, I took a few minutes to figure out the words (most of them, there's a couple of places I'm not sure about):

[muffled] I hate Alabama...
[muffled] I hate Alabama...

[first verse]

It's the one game every year
Where I drink a little more beer,
It's over before it's over
If we go there or they come here

Ever since '06
They get us every season,
I wish I could say that's the only reason...

[chorus]

That I hate Alabama
I hate crimson red
And I hate how they yell 'roll Tide'
When I got a Braves hat on my head

And I love Lynyrd Skynyrd
But Lord I hate "Sweet Home..."
Cause when I hear it all I see
Is a girl with houndstooth on

In the stands of Tuscaloosa
My loss by __________ too
But I hate Alabama
Cause that's where I lost you

[second verse]

I drove there every weekend
The Vols weren't home at Neyland
Girl you had this Tennessean
Seein' ten years down the road

And you had to go and break my heart
In a big can-covered frat house yard
I guess some things work
And some things don't...

And I guess some things change,
But one thing won't

[chorus]

[bridge]

Now I wish I could un-drive those miles,
Un-buy that drink,
Un-get your name,
And just be mad about the game
When I say...

[muffled] I hate Alabama...
[muffled] I hate Alabama...

[chorus]


EDIT: Right after doing all that work and posting this, I saw @jaxvol 's post #24, heh, which is super useful. Thanks, Jaxvol! (time to go put some ice on my fingers lol). Ahhhhh mighta lost by 22...i could not for the life of me figure that one out. :)

Hopefully before I die someone will release "I hate Tennessee."
Problem is, all the great musicians are right here in this great green state we call home.

Ain't no one who can sing or write music down in Alabama to pen it.

Awesome song. Has a catchy tune which makes it easy to listen too. Props to Connor.

I'll give it a 5...too hard to dance to. The band sounds good, the lead singer is good, I just don't like songs about how good Bubba's football team is, PLUS he lost his girl there ...or something.

Ever notice how every state has something good that people can talk about, but Bama has NOTHING but their football team---that's their entire identity. They call Alabama the Crimson Tide--call me a Deacon Blues....Sleepy sweet home Alabama, Roll Tide Roll...

About the only way I would EVER pull for Bama is if them beating someone moved us into a championship game. Even then I would feel the need to confess my sin and whip myself until I felt forgiven.

So, your saying if it came down to having to pull for Bama to get into heaven or go to hell you’d take your chances in hell?

Just checked. It's out now on Spotify. So I'm sure it's on whatever else everyone listens too as well.

We need to get this guy in the beat laboratory with Andy for a little collab. That’s short for collaboration for those of you not in the biz.
