(A.P. Carter)
My Dixie darlin' listen to this song I sing
Beneath the silver moon
With my banjo right in tune
My heart is ever true, I love no one but you
My Dixie darlin' my Dixie dream
A way down below the Mason-Dixon Line
Down where the honeys**les are entwined
There's where the southern winds are blowin'
There's where the daisies growing
Girls of the North in their gay finery
Whirling around in their high society
Singing a song of Dixie darlin'
Where I long to be
My Dixie darlin' listen to this song I sing
Beneath the silver moon
With my banjo right in tune
My heart is ever true, I love no one but you
My Dixie darlin' my Dixie dream
I'm going down south to have a big time
See my boy in ole Caroline
I'll drink my booze and do as I please
All them boys I long to squeeze
Singin' the song of Dixie darlin'
There's where I long to be going
Down where the jelly roll's growing
With my Dixie dream
My Dixie darlin' listen to this song I sing
Beneath the silver moon
With my banjo right in tune
My heart is ever true, I love no one but you
My Dixie darlin' my Dixie dream
