My Dixie Darling    (1907)

Way down below the Mason-Dixon line
Down where the honeysuckles are entwined
There's where the southern winds are blowin'
There's where the daisies' growin'

Girls up north in their gay finery
Whirling around in society
Singing the song of my dixie darling
Where I long to be

My dixie darlin'
Listen to the song I sing
Beneath the silv'ry moon
With my banjo right in tune
My heart's forever true
I love no one but you
My dixie darling
My dixie queen

Goin' down south, to have a big time
See my girl down in old Caroline
Drink my booze and do as I please
For all the girls I long to squeeze

Singing the song of my dixie darling
That's where I long to be going
That's where the jellyroll's rolling
With my dixie queen

My dixie darlin'
Listen to the song I sing
Beneath the silv'ry moon
With my banjo right in tune
My heart's forever true
I love no one but you
My dixie darling
My dixie queen
