Chorus: I sang Dixie as he died The people just walked on by as I cried The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride So I sang Dixie as he died He said way down yonder in the land of cotton Old times there aren t near as rotten as they are On this damned old L.A. street Then he drew a dying breathe And laid his head against my chest Please Lord, take his soul back home to Dixie Chorus: I sang Dixie as he died The people just walked on by as I cried The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride So I sang Dixie as he died He said listen to me son while you still can Run back home to that Southern land Don t you see what life here has done to me? Then he closed those old blue eyes And fell limp against my side No more pain, now he s safe back home in Dixie Chorus: I sang Dixie as he died The people just walked on by as I cried The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride So I sang Dixie as he died I sang Dixie as he died |
