Verse 1:
[A]Pine trees [D]grow so tall in the [E]bright sunshine
[D] A young boy [E]steals his daddy's [A]fishin' line
[A]An alligator [D]lays on the banks of a [E]riverbed
[D] And if you didn't [E]know any better
You'd [A]swear he's dead
Chorus:
[Bm] Now these are a [E]few things I'm in [A]love with
A [Bm]small part of the [E]reason I go [A]back
To Caro[Bm]lina Mississsippi [E]Florida gorgeous [A]Georgia
Now if you [Bm]think I'm happy down [E]there
You're on the right [A]track
And you [D]ain't just whistlin [E]Dixie
You [A]ain't just slappin your [D]knee
I'm a [D]grandson of the [E]Southland
An [A]heir to the Conf[A7]ederacy
You [D]ain't just whistlin [E]Dixie
?Cause the [A]cattle call's callin' me [D]home
So [D]put me down there where I [E]wanna be
[D]Plant my feet with [E]Robert E. Lee
[D]Bury my bones under a [E]cypress tree
And [D]never [C#m]let [E]me [A]roam
Verse 2:
[A]Cotton balls gleam and the [D]cow gives cream for the [E]baby's sake
[D]Pa comes in full of [E]gin and he's mean as a [A]rattlesnake
And if the [A]well runs dry and we [D]cry and cuss the [E]garden hose
[D]Mama draws a bucket full of [E]creek water just to [A]wash our clothes
(Chorus)
