Blues for dixie

If you've ever seen that ole Mississippi
The queen of the delta land
Then you'll under stand
Why I've got the Blues For Dixie

If you've ever been down in Tennessee when
Those old cotton fields were white
In pale moon light
Then you've had the Blues For Dixie

If you've seen the glamor of the Alabama
Moon shining in the sky if you've got a baby
Down in Birmingham maybe you'll know the reason why
That I'm gonna be blue till I'm on that old choo choo
Heading down South again
There goes that train
That's leaving me Blue For Dixie
