Dixie

Traditional (Daniel Decatur Emmett - 1859)

I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland.

In Dixieland where I was born early on a frosty mornin'
Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland.

I wish I was in Dixie, hooray! hooray!
In Dixieland 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.

In Dixieland where I was born early on a frosty mornin'
Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland.

I wish I was in Dixie, away, away
In Dixieland 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.
