GUEST,Gene Lyr Req: South (21) RE: Lyr Req: South 22 Apr 09


Several people lent a hand [EAR] in transcribing this ditty.

South
As recorded by Maddox Brothers & Rose

Down below that old Dixon line
There's a place - really is fine
Don't you know what I'm talkin' about
You want to find out
Then take the trip with me.

Down below that old Dixon line
Where the sun is happy to shine
Where a friendly face is common to see
That's where I'm longin' to be.

Where the folks are happy and gay
And the easy way is the right way
Where the bees make honey all day
Don't you know you're right next to heaven down South.

Where the moon shines mellow and bright
And the breeze plays tag with the night
That's where the sundown gals hold you tight
Lordy, how I love the South.

Note. Sounds like Rose sings [Don't-chu][Slang] to me.
