- Verse:
- Down be -low that old Dix
-on -Line There's a place that real -ly is fine
- Don't you know jus' what
I'm talk -in' a bout! -Y'wan -na find out? Then take a trip with
me
- Down be -low that old Dix
-on Line, Where the sun is hap -py to shine.
- Where a friend -ly face
is com -mon to see, That's where I'm long -in' to be.
-
- Chorus:
- Where the folks are hap
-py and gay, And the eas -y way is the right way.
- Where the bees make hon
-ey all day, Don't you know you're right next to Heav -en down
South.
- Where the moon shines mel
-low and bright, And the breez -es play tag with the night.
- There's where those -sun
down gals hold you tight; Law -dy how I love the South.
