usernameddr Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I was listning to Black Betty by Ram Jam and in the last verse it says "She's from Birmingham Bama Lamb Way down in Alabama Bama Lamb " Which doesn't match the other lyrics in the song or even the meaning. It just doesn't fit. It doesn't rhyme. What is it suppsoed to mean. It's like Ram Jam had to include it in the song for some reason. Why? It it personal experience about someone in Alabama. It's just make sence an it is bugging me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usernameddr Posted February 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Thats not what I mean. It is different from every other part in the song it just doesn't fit or rhyme why not? They could have put somehting else. It's really bugging me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 IMO its a fab song and it all fits together nicely! :bow:Ram Jam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSYCHOcatholic Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Yeah, its one of those songs, that people mainly listen to for the beat. When it came out and all that, a bunch of civil crap happened, saying the song was racist and all that jazz. But, i dont think anything is wrong with it.

TrampledUnderFoot Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 This song has coherent words? I just like the funky beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
