Dixie Lou 1913

I can hear the bees a buzzin'
down the meadow lane,
I can hear the darkies singin'
in the sugar cane,
I can hear the banjos strummin'
music soft and low,
and I've got another reason why
I want to go.

I'm goin' back to Dixie,
down where the Swanee flows;
Back to the sunny Southland,
down where the cotton grows.
I bought a railroad ticket,
I have my trunk packed too;
Goodbye, old pal,
I am goin' to see my gal,
my Dixie Lou.

I'm goin' back to Dixie,
down where the Swanee flows;
Back to the sunny Southland,
down where the cotton grows.
I bought a railroad ticket,
I have my trunk packed too;
Goodbye, old pal,
I am goin' to see my gal,
my Dixie Lou.

When the train stops at the station,
I know what I'll do,
I'll just get a weddin' license
and a parson too,
So don't be surprised
when I come back, old pal, to you
with a bunch of southern peaches,
and my Dixie Lou.

I'm goin' back to Dixie,
down where the Swanee flows;
Back to the sunny Southland,
down where the cotton grows.
I bought a railroad ticket,
I have my trunk packed too;
Goodbye, old pal,
I am goin' to see my gal,
my Dixie Lou.

I'm goin' back to Dixie,
down where the Swanee flows;
Back to the sunny Southland,
down where the cotton grows.
I bought a railroad ticket,
I have my trunk packed too;
Goodbye, old pal,
I am goin' to see my gal,
my Dixie Lou.
