Bellowhead

When the Alabama's keel was laid
Roll Alabama roll
She was laid in the yard of Johnathan Laird

Oh roll Alabama roll
She was laid in the yard of Johnathan Laird
Roll Alabama roll
She was laid in the town of Birkenhead
Oh roll Alabama roll
Roll Alabama roll
She was laid in the town of Birkenhead
Oh roll Alabama roll
Down Mersey channel she sailed then
Roll Alabama roll
And Liverpool gave her guns and men
Oh roll Alabama roll

Roll Alabama roll
And Liverpool gave her guns and men
Oh roll Alabama roll
Out of Mersey channel she set forth
Roll Alabama roll
To destroy the commerce of the north
Oh roll Alabama roll
Roll Alabama roll
To destroy the commerce of the north
Oh roll Alabama roll
Into Cherbourg harbour she sailed one day
Roll Alabama roll
To collect her share of the prize money
Oh roll Alabama roll
And many a sailor met his doom
Roll Alabama roll
When the Yankee ship hauled into view
Oh roll Alabama roll
Roll Alabama roll
When the Yankee ship hauled into view
Oh roll Alabama roll
A shot from the forward pivot that day
Roll Alabama roll
Blew the Alabama's shearing gear away
Oh roll Alabama roll
Of the three mile limit in sixty four
Roll Alabama roll
She sank to the bottom of the ocean floor
Oh roll Alabama roll
Roll Alabama roll
She sank to the bottom of the ocean floor
Oh roll Alabama roll
Oh roll Alabama roll
Oh roll Alabama roll
