Dixieland for Me

(Curtis McPeake - David Watkins)

George Jones & Melba Montgomery



I'm dreaming tonight of the mountains

That's where I long to roam

The roosters crow at the break of day

In my Dixie home, sweet home



Old people here they just don't care

I never saw the beat

That road ahead is mighty long

But it's Dixiland for me.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm going back to my old home

In the mountains far away

Where the wild red roses smell so sweet

And the rippling waters play.



Old people here they just don't care

I never saw the beat

That road ahead is mighty long

But it's Dixiland for me.



--- Instrumental ---



This city life is not for me

I'm going where the neighbors speak

That road ahead is mighty long

But it's Dixiland for me.



Old people here they just don't care

I never saw the beat

That road ahead is mighty long

But it's Dixiland for me.



That road ahead is mighty long

But it's Dixiland for me...
