Dixie Chicken Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis and the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp, I met a southern belle
Well, she took me to the river where she cast her spell
And in that southern moonlight she sang this song so well

[Chorus]
If you'll be my Dixie chicken I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland

[Verse 2]
Well, we made all the hotspots, my money flowed likе wine
Then the lowdown southеrn whiskey, began to fog my mind
I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk
On the house at the end of town

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, but boy do I remember the strain of her refrain
And nights we spent together
And the way she called my name

[Chorus]
If you'll be my Dixie chicken I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland

[Bridge]
Many years since she ran away
Guess that banjo player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
She's handy with a song

[Verse 3]
But then one night in the lobby of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well
As he handed me a drink he began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar began to sing along

[Chorus]
If you'll be my Dixie chicken I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
