You coaxed blues right out of the horn,
me h
You charmed the husk right
off of the cone, meh
You got the band just drum ming and
flunking out a tune to beat the band
The whole plant ation's
humming since you brought
Dixie back to
Dixieland
You made the cotton easy to pick,
meh
You gave my old man
Jule the kick, meh
Whoever thought a
Yankee would put a little
Dixie girl to shame
You made us feel alive again,
you've given us a drive again, to make the
South revive again, hey!
You make the old magno
lia tree pot, meh
You make
Amelia's bloom ing emerald, meh
You make a broken million dirt
purple at the mention of your name
We're bakin' beetle fries again
Tonight the chicken fries again
This time the south will rise again
Man, you made the black
eyed peas go rich
Man, seem like the
Philadelphia
Ritz
Man, you came, you saw, you conquered,
and absolutely nothing is the same.
You're special, fascinational,
prove to be inspirational.
You're special, fascinational,
prove to be inspirational.
We think you're just sensational and
man.
