I Sang Dixie 歌词

I sang 'Dixie' as he died The people just walked on by as I cried The bottle had robbed him, all his rebel pride So I sang 'Dixie' as he died He said, "Way down yonder in the land of cotton Old times there ain't near as rotten as they are On this damned old L.A. street" Then he drew a dying breath Laid his head against my chest Please Lord, take his soul back home to Dixie I sang 'Dixie' as he died People just walked on by, as I cried The bottle had robbed him, all his rebel pride So I sang 'Dixie' as he died He said, "Listen to me, son, while you still can Run back home to that Southern land Don't you see what life here has done to me?" Then he closed those old blue eyes And fell limp against my side No more pain, and now he's safe back home in Dixie I sang 'Dixie' as he died People just walked on by, as I cried The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride So I sang 'Dixie' as he died I sang 'Dixie' as he died
