Dixie When I Die Lyrics by Brett Myers

Baptized In Gasoline

0

[Verse 1]
Down in the south where the alligators crawl
Where the swamp meets the river and we speak with a drawl
Hard workin' people with American dreams
Livin' on a prayer for all the night brings
Sweeten our tea and love like crazy
Listen to mama, that's the way she raised me
Southern born and southern fed
Give me fried chicken, greens, and cornbread
[Pre-Chorus]
All we wanna do is have a beer or two
And live this simple life, just doin' what we do
[Chorus]
The south is comin' with me wherever I may go
When I'm headin' toward the light
They'll play Dixie when I die
Drinkin' whiskey out the bottle until the rooster crows
Starin' death right in the eyes
They'll play Dixie, Dixie when I die
[Verse 2]
Down in the south where the warm breeze blows
Protect what we love 'cause we only got those
Family and tradition, the root of our soul
Countin' our blessin's for all that unfolds
We like our women as sweet as our pie
Where the tall pines grow towards the big blue sky
These are my people, the southern kind
Livin' down south of the Dixie line
[Pre-Chorus]
All we wanna do is have a beer or two
And live this simple life, just doin' what we do
[Chorus]
The south is comin' with me wherever I may go
When I'm headin' toward the light
They'll play Dixie when I die
Drinkin' whiskey out the bottle until the rooster crows
Starin' death right in the eyes
They'll play Dixie, Dixie when I die
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
The south is comin' with me wherever I may go
When I'm headin' toward the light
They'll play Dixie when I die
Drinkin' whiskey out the bottle until the rooster crows
Starin' death right in the eyes
They'll play Dixie, Dixie when I die
They'll play Dixie, Dixie when I die
The south is comin' with me wherever I may go
The south is comin' with me wherever I may go
They'll play Dixie, Dixie when I die
They'll play Dixie, Dixie when I die
