Charley Patton does a killer version of this called Elder Greene Blues
-
There's a priest in the pulpit, bible in his hand.
And his sister's way back in the amen corner hollerin', "That's my man."
I'm Alabama bound, Alabama bound,
And if you want me to love you babe, you got to leave this town.
Now the boat's up the river, can't be floated down.
But she heaves on South now darlin' babe, she's Alabama bound.
It's like a big thick beefsteak, ain't got no bone.
And if a man don't like a good brown skinned women now babe he ain't got no home.

Stood on the corner, feet got soaking wet,
I was hollering and crying to every brown-skinned gal I met.
I'm Alabama bound, Alabama bound,
And if you want me to love you babe, you got to leave this town.
And the rooster crowed, the hen looked around,
Said, "If you want me to love you babe you got to run me down."
Look here pretty mama, who can your regular be?
The reason I'm (basking now stalling) she's so good to me.

I'm Alabama bound, Alabama bound,
And if you want me to love you babe, you got to leave this town.
Elder Green's in town, and he's goin' around.
And he's tellin' all the sisters and the brothers he meets he's Alabama bound.
Now don't you leave me here, don't you leave me here.
Just before you and your partner get ready to go, leave a dime for a beer.
