Alabama Shakes is a blues
rock band from USA formed in Athens, Alabama in 2009. The band currently
consists of lead singer and guitarist Brittany Howard, guitarist Heath Fogg,
bassist Zac Cockrell, and drummer Steve Johnson. The group rose to prominence
in the early 2010s with their distinctive and soulful roots rock sound.
The band began their career touring and performing at
bars and clubs around the Southeast for two years while honing their sound and
writing music. They recorded their debut album, Boys &
Girls, with producer Andrija Tokic in Nashville while still unsigned. Online
acclaim led ATO Records to sign the band, which released Boys & Girls in

nominated for three Grammy Awards. After a long touring cycle, the band
recorded their second record, Sound & Color, which was released in 2015 and

He ask me not to go so fast
Slow the road down babe
He said he got him a little girl
She ain't no cruiser like I am
Well you know she ain't the one
You got to run boy run
Now why you wanna do it dirty?
And with me, how could'ya hurt me?
Oh baby, please please please
How could'ya leave me down here on my knees
Well you know she ain't the one
You got to run boy run
Ooh, ooh daddy ooh
You know my heart's not outta room
You wanna love that little girl
By all means, honey do
Well you know she ain't the one
He said now lemme take'ya out
Buy you new appliances
I wanna take'ya out
Better home and sciences [wtf?]
I wanna take'ya out
I wanna meet'cha kids
I wanna take you home baby
Tell me where it is
I come back when I want and
Don't you ask no questions
Me and you forever baby
You could be together babe
I said I love'ya babe!
And no I really do
I wanna take ya out
And take'ya kids out too
I wonder if you'll let me
We're stuck in the heavy Chevy
I wonder if you'll let me
Baby baby do ya get me
I wonder if you'll ever
Eh-eh-eh-ever be jealous
I wanna be with you together baby
You and me throughout eternity!
