[Chorus]
CI sang Dixie as he died the people just walked on bye as I C7cried
The bottle had Frobbed him of all his rebel Cpride
So I sang DixiG7e as he Cdied
[Verse 1]
CHe said way down yonder in the land of cotton
FOle times there aint near as rotten as they Care
COn theses damned ole L.A sG7treets
CThen he drew a dying breath
FLaid his head against my chest
Oh please Clord take his G7soul back
Home to CDixie
[Chorus]
CI sang Dixie as he died the people just walked on bye as I C7cried
The bottle had Frobbed him of all his rebel Cpride
So I sang DixiG7e as he Cdied
[Verse 2]
CHe said listen to me son while you still can
FRun back home to that southern land
Don’t you Csee what life here has done to G7me
CThen he closed those old blue eyes
FFell limp against my side no more Cpain
Now he’s G7safe back home in DCixie
[chorus]
CI sang Dixie as he died the people just walked on bye as I C7cried
The bottle had Frobbed him of all his rebel Cpride
So I sang DixiG7e as he Cdied
[Outro]
Yes I sang DixiG7e as he Cdied
