Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis and the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp, I met a southern belle
Well, she took me to the river where she cast her spell
And in that southern moonlight, she sang the song so well
[Chorus]
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I'll be your Tennessee Lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
[Verse 2]
Yeah, well, we made all the hot spots, my money flowed like wine
And then that lowdown southern whiskey began to fog my mind
And I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk of the house at the edge of town
Oh, but boy do I remember the strain of her refrain
And the nights we spent together, and the way she called my name
[Chorus]
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I'll be your Tennessee Lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
[Verse 3]
Yeah well, it's been a year since she ran away
Guess that guitar player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
She's always handy with a song
Then one night in the lobby, yeah, of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well
And as he handed me a drink, he began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar began to sing along
[Chorus]
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I'll be your Tennessee Lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
