Dixie

I wish I was in the land of cotton

Old times there are not forgotten

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land

In Dixie Land where I was born

Early on one frosty morn

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land

Oh I wish I was in Dixie, hooray, hooray

In Dixie land I'll take my stand to live and die in Dixie

Away, away, away down South in Dixie

With one kiss she married Will the Weaver

But William was a sly deceiver

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land

And when he put his arm around her

He smiled as fierce as a forty-pounder

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land

Oh I wish I was in Dixie, hooray, hooray

In Dixie land I'll take my stand to live and die in Dixie

Away, away, away down South in Dixie

His face was as sharp as a butcher's cleaver

But that did not seem to grieve her

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land

With one kiss she acted the foolish part

And died for a man that broke her heart

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land

Oh I wish I was in Dixie, hooray, hooray

In Dixie land I'll take my stand to live and die in Dixie

Away, away, away down South in Dixie

Away (away), away (away), away (away), away (away)

Away down South in Dixie
