Curtis Gordon was known as "Mr. Personality" and could be heard over WALA-TV every Monday night at 7:00pm in Mobile, Alabama. Back then, he was on the Mercury record label and was known to be quite a flashy dresser, with a western wardrobe to rival most Hollywood cowboys. He did a west cosast tour they said that was so well received that he could do it again anytime.

MOBILE, ALABAMA
(Curtis Gordon)

You take an M-O-B-I-L-E
That's the place that means the world to me
If you tend a vacation
You should choose
Mobile Alabama, you'll loose your blues
The sights down there, you'd wanna see
Including the brand new Dolphin Islandees
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
The place that means the world to me

Well, the folks down there
Are really fine
So take your fans and come on down
Tell your friends and we will meet
Down in Mobile on Dauphin street
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
The place that means the world to me

Azalea Trail and a mardi gras too
Just anything you want to do
And there's a place you'd wanna see
It's Bellingrath gardens, yes siree
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
Mobile, Mobile Alabama
The place that means the world to me
