Is It True What They Say About Dixie    (1936)

Is it true what they say about Dixie
Does the sun really shine all the time
Do the sweet magnolias blossom at everybody's door
Do the folks keep eating possum til they can't eat no more

Is it true what they say about Suwannee
Is a dream by the stream so sublime
Do they laugh, do they love, like they say in every song
If it's true that's where I belong

Is it true what they say about Dixie
Does the sun really shine all the time
Well do the sweet magnolias blossom at everybody's door
Do the folks keep eating that possum til they can't eat no more

Is it true what they say about Suwannee
Is a dream by the stream so sublime
Do they laugh, love, like they say in every song
If it's true that's where I belong

Lyrics by Irving Caesar, Sammy Lerner and Gerald Marks.
Recorded by Al Jolson; Jimmy Dorsey; Dean Martin; others.
