So Long Dixie

Lazy moon
Magnolia bloom perfume
And Dixie would receive
A lady fading fast
Still clinging to the past
But she had you hating to leave

So long, Dixie
Sweet Dixie girl, you sure had style
Recalling times we've had
With all your good and bad
I'm glad I had you for a while

When we get the blues
We just shine up our shoes
And head for Dixie's place
Ah, we'd sit ourselves right down
And pass the bourbon 'round
Let Dixie get on the case

So long, Dixie
Sweet Dixie girl, you sure had style
Recalling times we've had
With all your good and bad
I'm glad I had you for a while

Years go by
Some memories fade and die
But, Dixie, you still shine
Now up here where it's cold
Folks don't understand your soul
Dixie, you're still part of mine

Oh, so long, Dixie
Sweet Dixie girl, you sure had style
Recalling times we've had
With all your good and bad
I'm glad I had you for a while
So long, Dixie
Sweet Dixie girl, you sure had style
Recalling times we've had
With all your good and bad
I'm glad I had you for a while
So long, Dixie, Dixie
Sweet Dixie girl, you sure had style
Recalling times we've had
With all your good and bad
I'm glad I had you for a while
So long, Dixie
Oh, you sure had style
Recalling times we've had
With all your good and bad, yeah
I'm glad I had you for awhile

Ah, Dixie
