Flying south

Summer's gone and wintertime's a comin'
And where I am ain't where I wanna be
I can hear my southern home a callin'
And it's callin' out the old wide goose and me

Flyin' flyin' south to Dixie
Lord I been so lonesome and alone
But stayin' ain't no use because my heart's an old wild goose
And tomorrow I'll be flyin' south and home

I've got kids and kin down in Kentucky
I've got lots of aunts in Alabam
Mom's a waitin' down in Mississippi
And my sist's in Carolina's honey land

Flyin' flyin' south to Dixie...

[ steel ]
Grandma and grandpa's down in Georgia
And my Tootsie's down in Tennessee
There's a little part of all the southland in my heart
And honey in the south is where I wanna be

Flyin' flyin' south to Dixie...
And tomorrow I'll be flyin' south and home
