Dixie

Dixie - Ashley Monroe

If I ever get out of Dixie

Gonna buy me some brand new shoes

Gonna have somebody shine 'em up soon as I pay my dues

If I ever get out of Tennessee

Out from 'neath this dust and dirt

Gonna live my life like a high and mighty

Gonna get what I deserve

When I cross that line man I'll sing a brand new song

Instead of sitting here

By the railroad tracks whistlin' Dixie all day long

I'm so tired of paying praying for my sins

Lord get me outta Dixie Land in Jesus' name amen

It was the mines that killed my daddy

It was the law that killed my man

It was the Bible belt that whipped me

When I broke the Fifth Command

I don't hate the weather

I don't hate the land

But if I had my way I'd never see this place again

When I cross that line man I'll sing a brand new song

Instead of sitting here

By the railroad tracks whistlin' Dixie all day long

I'm so tired of paying praying for my sins

Lord get me outta Dixie Land in Jesus' name amen

When I cross that line man I'll sing a brand new song

Instead of sitting here

By the railroad tracks whistlin' Dixie all day long

I'm so tired of paying praying for my sins

Lord get me outta Dixie Land in Jesus' name amen

When I tread out of these parts

Look me up on the other side

'Cause I'll be damned if I go down in Dixie when I die

Yeah I'll be damned if I go down in Dixie when I die
