VERSE
I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten,
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land
VERSE
In Dixie Land where I was born
Early on a frosty mornin',
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land
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 down South in Dixie
INTERLUDE
VERSE
There's buckwheat cakes and Injun batter,
Makes you fat or a little fatter.
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land
VERSE
Then hoe it down and scratch your gravel,
To Dixie's Land I'm bound to travel.
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land
I wish I was in Dixie, away! away!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To live and die in Dixie,
Away, away, away down South in Dixie,
Away, away, away down South in Dixie
