Alabama
If I lived in Alabama
I would so much disapprove
Of the attitude towards women
That I’d simply have to move.
There’s a revolution coming
And, despite those southern charms,
Many Alabama females
Should right now be up in arms.
For to challenge a decision
That’s been law for many years
Proves that women’s low-class status
In that state still perseveres.
I’ll not visit Alabama;
I don’t know why someone would
But I hope there will be protests
And perhaps they’ll do some good.
