"Alabamy Bound" is a Tin Pan Alley tune written in 1924, with music by Ray Henderson and words by Buddy DeSylva and Bud Green. Written for the vaudeville stage it was made famous by Al Jolson. "Alabamy Bound" opens with: :''I'm Alabamy bound'' :''I'm Alabamy bound'' :''They'll be no heebie-jeebies hanging 'round'' :''Just gave the meanest ticket man on earth'' :''All I'm worth to put my tootsies in an upper berth '' :''Just hear the choo-choo sound'' :''I know that soon we're gonna cover ground'' :''And then I'll holler so the world will know'' :''Here I go,'' (repeat) Refrain: I can hear that choo-choo whistle blow, Watch that engine when we start to go! Now we're in Baltimore, Knockin' at Dixie's door! What's that Bill? Louisville! We passed that before! Field o' cotton, tell me where I am, Hear that fella yellin', "Alabam!" Mammy! Mammy! Get your kisses ready for your honey lamb! ''Verse 2:'' I'm Alabamy bound, There'll be no heebie jeebies hangin' round. Just gave the meanest ticket man on earth All I'm worth,To put my tootsies in an upper berth. I'm just a lucky lucky hound To have someone to put my arms around! That's why I'm shoutin' for the world to know, Here I go! I'm Alabamy bound! ==Early recordings== This song also can be found as the first track on Side 1 of the Longines Symphonette Society proudly presents Roaring 20's Ragtime (SYS 5047). I don't know what year this record was put out. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alabamy Bound」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
