I didn't get my Dixie drawl
|
A-drinkin' out of a Dixie cup
|
Yes sir, I'm strictly from Dixie
|
|
And when I say, "I loves you all"
|
It's meant to be on the up-and-up
|
Yes sir, I'm strictly from Dixie
|
|
When I came up from the South
|
I felt so down in the mouth
|
Then I took one look at you
|
And thought about Dixie skies of blue
|
I thought about sweet magnolias too
|
|
I never missed a cotton bowl
|
I like my tulips a trifle tall
|
Yes sir, I'm strictly from Dixie
|
