Dixie's
Land
I wish I was in de land of cotton
Old times dar am not forgotten
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
In Dixie Land whar I was born in,
Early on one frosty mornin,
Look away! Look away! Look away Dixie Land.
CHORUS:
Den I wish I was in Dixie, Hooray! Horray!
In Dixie Land, I'll took my stand,
To lib and die in Dixie,
Away, Away, Away down south in Dixie,
Away, Away, Away down south in Dixie.
Old Missus marry "Will-de-weaber,"
Willium was a gray deceaber,
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
But when he put his arm around 'er
He smilled as fierce as a 'forty-piund'er'
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
His face was sharp as a butchers cleaber,
but dat did not seem to gread'er;
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
Old Missus acted de foolish part,
And died for a man dat broke her heart.
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
Now here's a health to the next old Missus,
An all de gals dat want to kiss us
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
But if you want to drive 'way sorrow,
come an hear dis song to-morrow.
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
Dar's buck-wheat cakes and 'Ingen' batter,
Makes you fat or a little fatter;
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
Den hoe it down an scratch your grabble,
To Dixie land I"m bound to trabble.
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land
