Dixie - Ashley Monroe

If I ever get out of Dixie

I’m gonna buy me some brand new shoes

I’m gonna have somebody shine 'em up soon as I pay my dues

If I ever get out of Tennessee

Out from 'neath this dust and dirt

Gonna live my life like a high and mighty

Gonna get what I deserve

And when I cross that line, man I’ll sing a brand new song

Instead of sitting here by the railroad tracks whistlin' Dixie all day long

Well, I’m so tired of paying, praying for my sins

Lord, get me outta Dixie Land, in Jesus' name, amen

It was the mines that killed my daddy

It was the law that killed my man

It was the Bible belt that whipped me

When I broke the Fifth Command

Now, I don’t hate the weather

Now, I don’t hate the land

But if I had my way, I’d never see this place again

And when I cross that line, man I’ll sing a brand new song

Instead of sitting here by the railroad tracks whistlin' Dixie all day long

Well, I’m so tired of paying, praying for my sins

Lord, get me outta Dixie Land, in Jesus' name, amen

And when I cross that line, man I’ll sing a brand new song

Instead of sitting here by the railroad tracks whistlin' Dixie all day long

Well, I’m so tired of paying, praying for my sins

Lord, get me outta Dixie Land, in Jesus' name, amen

When I tread out of these parts

Look me up on the other side

'Cause I’ll be damned if I go down in Dixie when I die

Yeah, I’ll be damned if I go down in Dixie when I die
