Dixie — текст песни (Cher)

Wish I was in the land of cotton
There`s a man waiting there
Who`ll never be forgotten
Why did I have to go?
Why did I go away?

It was early on one frosty morning
I left the sleepy town I was born in
I wrote a letter that said I was going
And I layed it beside your bed

And now the concrete hurts my feet
New York`s too big a city for me
Back down south from Dixie beside you
Honey is where I wanna be

Chorus:

And then my cotton gown`ll come tumblin` down
I`ll make ya feel like a hell of a man
I wanna be held tight in your arms tonight
In my sweet old Dixie land
Darling it seems like forever
Does the Mississippi still run free
I miss a little bit of Heaven
And your southern hospitality

These neon lights drive me crazy
I wanna lay next to you and be lazy
Where the sweet magnolia blossoms
In the early morning Georgia air

Tonight it looks like snow
But this Gray Hound`s starting to roll
I gonna be whistelin` Dixie
All the way back home to you

(chorus)(repeat)
