Origineel
Big wheels keep on turning
Carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the south-land
I miss ‘ole’ ‘bamy once again
And I think it’s a sin
Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ole Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don’t need him around any how
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I’m coming home to you
In Birmingham they love the Gov’nor
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
Lord, I’m coming home to you
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they’ve been known to pick a song or two
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I’m feeling blue
Now how bout you?
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I’m coming home to you
Vertaling
Grote wielen blijven draaien
Ze brengen me naar huis om mijn familie te zien.
Liedjes zingend over het zuiderland
Ik mis ‘ole’ ‘bamy nogmaals
And I think it’s a sin
Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ole Neil put her down
Nou, ik hoop dat Neil Young zich herinnert
A southern man don’t need him around any way
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Heer, ik kom thuis bij u
In Birmingham houden ze van de Gov’nor
Nu hebben we allemaal gedaan wat we konden doen
Nu stoort Watergate me niet
Heb je last van je geweten?
Vertel de waarheid.
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Heer, ik kom thuis bij U
Muscle Shoals heeft de Swampers
En ze zijn bekend om een liedje of twee te zingen
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I’m feeling blue
En hoe zit het met jou?
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I’m coming home to you
