If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home
|
|
I was one of the chosen few, to be born in Alabam',
|
I'm just alike my daddy's son, I'm proud of who I am.
|
I went through a lot of good women, and shook old Jim Beam's hand,
|
If I never see the pearly gates, I've walked through the promised land.
|
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go,
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home.
|
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry, like they do in Tennessee,
|
Just send me to hell or New York City, it would be about the same to me.
|
|
I've got wild honey trees and crazy little weeds, growin' around my shack,
|
These dusty roads ain't streets of gold, but I'm a happy right where I'm at.
|
All these pretty little southern belles are a country boy's dream,
|
They ain't got wings or halos, but they're sure looking good to me. +
|
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I don't wanna go
|
If heaven ain't a lot like Dixie, I'd just as soon stay home
|
If they don't have a Grand Ole Opry, like they do in Tennessee,
|
just send me to hell or New York City, it would be about the same to me.
