Lyrics

The Alibama

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Proud in the morning sun

Day has just begun

She's a queen riding on the waves

So many miles away

Sailing many a day

Brave in dark storms and hurricanes

Bringing something for everyone

From far-off lands underneath the sun

Here comes the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

Here comes the Alibama, sailing homewards to you and to me

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Sailing the seven seas

Like a bird on the breeze

Oh how she travelled far and wide

Now she is nearly at home

Not much longer alone

Coming back on the morning tide

Bringing something for everyone

From far-off lands underneath the sun

Here comes the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

Here comes the Alibama, sailing homewards to you and to me

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama...

Proud in the morning sun

Day has just begun

She's a queen riding on the waves

So many miles away

Sailing many a day

Brave in dark storms and hurricanes

Bringing something for everyone

From far-off lands underneath the sun

Here comes the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

Here comes the Alibama, sailing homewards to you and to me

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Here comes the Alibama-ma

Sailing the seven seas

Like a bird on the breeze

Oh how she travelled far and wide

Now she is nearly at home

Not much longer alone

Coming back on the morning tide

Bring us home, wind up high in the mast

Keep us safe, hold her steady and fast

And the people at home

Have been waiting so long

Through the tears and the pain

'Cause they're sailing home again

Bringing something for everyone

From far-off lands underneath the sun

Here comes the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

Here comes the Alibama, sailing homewards to you and to me

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama, the Alibama from over the sea

The Alibama, the Alibama...
