Way down in Dixie, oh do they miss me
Down along the Dixie line
Banjoes are strummin?, horseflies are hummin?
Ripe melons on the vine
The gold and the gray weeds sing look away
Way down along the Dixie line
I spent my childhood walking the wildwood
Can't you hear those drivers wail
Can't you see those bright rails shine
Gonna catch that fireball man
Leave the northland far behind
Solo over verse chords
Can't you hear those drivers wail
Can't you see those bright rails shine
Wanna catch that fireball man
Leave the northland far behind
Down along the Dixie line
