The Boys From Alabama - Remastered

We're gonna take you up to McNairy County, Tennessee
Back in the days when Sheriff Buford Pusser ran things around there
Sheriff Buford Pusser was tryin' to clean up McNairy County, Tennessee
From all them bootleggers that was bringin' crime and corruption
And illegal liquor into his little dry county
And for his troubles he got ambushed and his wife was murdered
And his house got blown up, and they made a movie about it called Walking Tall
This is the other side of that story

Well, they caught you smoking grass and the judge threw the book
And I saw a little opportunism in your look
You can take it from me, boy, take it from a crook

We have friends on the inside and friends on the outside
They'll sneak up beside you, so keep on the good side

I can see you standing there, staring down at your shoes
Thinking 'bout your mom and dad and wondering what to do
Well, you best look inside yourself, boy
We're all watching you
We have friends in jail who can see you through
Boy, don't forget, no matter what you do

Don't piss off the boys from Alabama
You know we won't let it slide
They might find your body in the Tennessee River
Or they might not find it at all

And there'll be no place to run and hide
And your family ain't safe at all
So don't piss off the boys from Alabama
We're keepin' an eye on you

We're keepin' an eye on you

Don't piss off the boys from Alabama
You better take it like a man
Ain't nobody gonna stick anything up your ass
If you remember who your friends are

We got good help down in Franklin County
They'll hunt you like a dog
You can take your fall or lose it all
The choice is up to you

I wouldn't piss off the boys from Alabama if I was you

If I was you
