Lyrics Begin:

One, two, three
Turn it up

Big wheels keep on turnin’
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin’ songs about the south-land
I miss Alabamy once again and I think it’s a sin, yes

Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ol’ Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don’t need him around anyhow

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord I’m comin’ home to you

In Birmingham they love the governor (boo-hoo-hoo)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama (oh yeah)
Lord I’m comin’ home to you
Here I come, Alabama

Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they’ve been known to pick a song or two (yes they do)
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I’m feelin’ blue
Now how about you?

Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord I’m comin’ home to you

Sweet home Alabama (oh, sweet home)
Where the skies are so blue
And the governor’s true
Sweet home Alabama (lordy)
Lord I’m comin’ home to you, yeah, yeah
Montgomery’s got the answer

Lyrics Begin:

Think (think)

You think (think)
Think (think)
Think about it (think)

You better think (think)
Think about what you’re trying to do to me
Yeah think (think, think)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

Let’s go back, let’s go back
Let’s go way on back when
I didn’t even know you
You couldn’t have been too much more than ten
I ain’t no psychiatrist
I ain’t no doctor with a degree
It don’t take too much IQ
To see what you’re doing to me

You better think (think)
Think about what you’re trying to do to me
Yeah think (think, think)
Let your mind go, let yourself be free

Oh freedom (freedom)
Freedom (freedom)
Freedom
Yeah freedom

Freedom (freedom) X2
Freedom
Oh freedom

Hey, think about it!
You, think about it!
