Thanks to Pete -

WHEN THE ROSES BLOOM IN DIXIELAND

CHORUS
When the roses bloom in Dixieland
I am coming home to you
When the band is playing music grand
To the sweetest gal I knew
I am saving up my money
To buy a little cabin home for two
When the roses bloom in Dixieland
I am coming home to you.

I got a letter from the sunny South
From my girl in Tennessee
She says she loves me like she used to do
And she's waiting there for me.

I answered her her letter
Though I am far away
When the roses bloom in Dixieland
I'm coming home to stay.

I left my honey at the railroad track
Saying honey wait for me
I'm going to make a lot of money up North
Then it's me for old Tennessee.
