Blues for Dixie Songtext
von Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys

If you′ve ever seen that ole Mississippi
The queen of the Delta land
Then you'll understand why I′ve got the blues for Dixie (Dixie)

If you've ever been to Tennessee when
Those old cotton fields were white in pale moonlight
Then you've had the blues for Dixie (oh, Dixie)


If you′ve seen the glamor of that Alabama moon shinin′ in the sky (yes, yes)
If you've got a baby in Birmingham
Maybe you′ll know the reason why (oh-haw)
That I'm gonna be blue ′til I'm on that old choo-choo
Headin′ down south again, there goes that train
That's leavin' me blue for Dixie (oh, Dixie)

If you′ve seen the glamor of that Alabama moon shinin′ in the sky
If you've got a baby in Birmingham
Maybe you′ll know the reason why
That I'm gonna be blue ′til I'm on that old choo-choo
Headin′ down south again, there goes that train
That's leavin' me blue for Dixie (yeah)
