Lyrics
If you've ever seen that Ol' Mississippi
Queen of the Delta Land
Then You'll understand
Why I've got the Blues for Dixie
If You've ever been to Tennessee
When those old cotton balls turn white
In the pale moonlight
Then You've had the Blues for Dixie
Chorus:
If you've seen the glamour
Of the Alabama
Moon shinin' in the sky.
If you've got a baby
Down in Birmingham maybe
You'll know the reason why
I'm gonna be blue
Till I'm on that ol' choochoo
Headed down south again
There goes that train
That's leavin' me Blue for Dixie.
Break...
Chorus...
I'm gonna be blue
Till I'm on that ol' choochoo
Headed down south again
There goes that train
That's leavin' me Blue for Dixie.
repeat...
There goes that train
That's leavin' me Blue for Dixie...
