| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | I Want To Be In Dixie 18 Jan 1912 | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 57 | | | | Lyrics: | 1st verse:]
I'm very glad
I'm very glad
Because a train I'm takin'
To that ne'er
forgotten or forsaken
Sunny land of cotton, down to the town I was born
I'm glad I
had
I'm glad I had
Enough to buy a ticket
Now I hope that there will be no
pause
Let me tell you the reason is because:
[chorus:]
I want to be
I want
to be
I want to be down home in Dixie
Where the hens are doggone glad to
lay
Scrambled eggs in the new mown hay
You ought to see
You ought to
see
You ought to see my home in Dixie
You can tell the world I'm going
to
D-I-X-I don't know how to spell it
But I'm goin'
You bet I'm goin'
To my home
in Dixieland
[2nd verse:]
Conductor man
Conductor man
I'm kind o' hard of
hearin'
So just fix it when the train is nearin'
Dear old Dixie, better shout, holler out,
good and loud
Conductor man
Conductor man
I'm goin' to fall asleep now
Tell the
motorman to start the train
Let me tell you when I wake up again | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
