The cold December wind seems bent on rockin' New York City 
The town that's got me down to my last dime 
And everywhere I go, the people seem in such a hurry 
To keep this Mobile girl from feelin' fine 

[Chorus]
Lord, what I'd give to see an Alabama sundown 
The sun just seemed to drop in Mobile Bay 
New York town has got a gifted way to keep a girl down 
But that never was the Mobile way, no, no 
That never was the Mobile way 

A flashing sign says that you can rent a bed for just a dollar 
In anybody's town, that price is cheap 
It's a shame to know a girl would ever fall down to my standards 
Cause I need ninety cents to go to sleep 

[Chorus]

I felt so big the day I left that Mobile couldn't hold me 
I thought there had to be a better way 
But if I could find that man that first called Lady Luck a lady 
That gentleman would surely learn to pray 

[Chorus: x2]
