[C] Health and wealth wherever you go, [F] she's a blessing you'll be told.

_ It was a blessing through consent on [F] a journey as I went.
To [G] the mother of a girl I longed [C] to wed.
And as I rode near the place, tears [F] went down a rosy face
when [G] I asked her for her daughter and [C] she said,
_ She's a flower from the fields of _ Alabama.
Take her for she loves you, yes I know.
_ Health and wealth wherever you go, [F] she's a blessing you'll be told.
[G] She's a flower from the fields of [C] Alabama.

_ _ Standing in my cottage door [F] thinking of the days of yore,
and [G] my dear old wife was standing by [C] my side.
_ She seemed so dear to me, [F] into eyes such love I see.
[G] As it was one day I heard her [C] mother say,
_ _ She's a flower from the fields of _ Alabama.
_ Take her for she loves you, yes I know.
_ Health and wealth wherever you go, [F] she's a blessing you'll be told.
[G] She's a flower from the fields of [C] Alabama.
