Dixie Cannonball

Dixie Canonball - Gene Autry

Written by：R. Foely

I'm a headin' back to Dixie that's where I long to be

Where the cotton grows and the Swanee flows that's home sweet home to me

Where they meet you and they greet you with a great big how you all

Well shut my mouth I'm a headin' south on the Dixie cannonball

On the Dixie cannonball on the Dixie cannonball

Just listen to the whistle it'll thrill you one and all

And I know there's someone waitin' with a great big how you all

Well shut my mouth I'm a headin' south on the Dixie cannonball

When I cross them smokey mountain I'll be countin' every mile

When the whistle blows I'll be on my toes and I'll shuffle down the aisle

And I know I'll not be lonesome when I see them treetops tall

I'm coming through on the big choo choo on the Dixie cannonball

On the Dixie cannonball on the Dixie cannonball

Just listen to the whistle it'll thrill you one and all

And I know there's someone waitin' with a great big how you all

Well shut my mouth I'm a headin' south on the Dixie cannonball

On the Dixie cannonball on the Dixie cannonball

Just listen to the whistle it'll thrill you one and all

And I know there's someone waitin' with a great big how you all

Well shut my mouth I'm a headin' south on the Dixie cannonball

Well shut my mouth I'm a headin' south on the Dixie cannonball
