Lyrics

This is one of the grat ones
This is a bluesy little tune somenody wrote somewhere
Called "Blues for Dixie"
One, two, three
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
If you've ever been to Tennessee
When those old cotton fields are white
In pale moonlight
Then you've had the blues for Dixie
If you've seen the glamour
Of an Alabama moon shinin' in the sky
You've got a baby down 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 (woo-hoo)
That's leavin' me blue for Dixie, aw
Oh, come in here, Ricky
Oh, come on in here, professor Tim Alexander on a piano
Just one of the boys, Cindy
You know, if you've seen the glamour
Of that Alabama moon shinin' in the sky
If you've got a baby down in Birmingham, maybe
You'll know the reason why
'Cause I'm gonna be blue 'til I'm on that old choo-choo
Headin' down south again
There goes that train (woo-hoo)
That's leavin' me blue for Dixie, yeah
Thank you
