"Huckabee and former U.S. ambassador to Israel David Friedman took to the stage on Saturday in Jerusalem to play a version of Sweet Home Alabama called Sweet Home Yerushalayim (Hebrew for Jerusalem). The original Sweet Home Alabama was released in 1974. Huckabee's performance took place at the annual United Hatzalah's Sukkot concert. The event was held to celebrate Israel and the recent peace deal between the country and Hamas."
"Torah scrolls keep on turning. Just two days and we are through. Then we start from the beginning. Hashem's holy words begin anew. We all have come to help Hatzalah. And we wanna help it thrive. Based right here in God's holy city. Throughout this land it's saving lives. Sweet Home Yerushalayim. Where God's words ring so true. Sweet home Yerushalayim. Lord, I'm coming home to you."
Mike Huckabee and former U.S. ambassador David Friedman performed a reworked version of Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Sweet Home Alabama' titled 'Sweet Home Yerushalayim' in Jerusalem. The performance occurred at United Hatzalah's annual Sukkot concert and marked a celebration of Israel and a recent peace deal with Hamas. The lyrics were rewritten to reference Torah, Hashem, United Hatzalah's life-saving work in Jerusalem, and included a dig at the United Nations and praise for President Donald Trump. Huckabee played bass and has a longtime musical background, often performing with guests and a house band. Huckabee credited President Trump with engineering the peace deal in a Fox Business interview.
