Are You From Dixie? 歌词

Hello there, stranger, how do you do? There's something i'd like to say to you Don't be surprised, you're recognized I'm no detective but i've just surmised You're from the place where i long to be Your smiling face seems to say to me You're from my own land, my sunny homeland Tell me can it be Are you from dixie? i said from dixie Where the fields of cotton beckon to me I'm glad to see you, tell me how be you And the friends i'm longing to see If you're from alabama, tennessee or caroline Any place below the mason-dixon line, Then you're from dixie, hurray for dixie 'cause i'm from dixie too It was a way back in eighty nine I crossed the old mason-dixon line Gee, but i've yearned, longed to return To all the good old pals i left behind My home is way down in alabam' On a plantation near birmingham, And one thing's certain, i'm surely flirtin' With those southbound trains
