There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
(The fishermen of Table Bay, South Africa sing of Alibama as a wond'rous being who brings them exotic girts
They don't remember the confederate raider, the Alabama, that called there in 1863
We could use your help on this fine song that comes to us through their faulty memories
Sing along won't you?)
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
He comes from far led by a star
He skims the waves skillful and brave
Where does he go? No one can know
Where does he come? Love drives him on (Play it again)
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
He'll bring me spice, sugar and rice
He'll bring me spice, sugar and rice
He'll bring me malt, pepper and salt
He'll bring me malt, pepper and salt
He'll bring me thyme, ginger and lye
He'll bring me thyme, ginger and lye
He'll bring me curry, coffee and tea
He'll bring me curry, coffee and tea (Here we go all together)
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
He'll sail away out of the bay
Out of our sight into the night
Then, we who stay linger and pray
We'll watch for when he's back again
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea (Scully now)
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
There comes Alibama
Alibama over the sea
