My request is Dixie by Dwight Yoakum.
It is a result of a really bad, it's a result of really bad things he and his brother saw
one night when Dwight was living in LA.
I believe there are many people that can relate to this song and it is powerful.
Thank you Ty and God bless.
God bless you as well.
Jimmy Adams.
Alright.
So you all heard what it was? Dwight Yoakum.
I sang Dixie.
I'm ready to roll right on into it.
Here we go. _ _ _
_ I asked Dwight myself to sing this song because I like it so much.
It's a song that he wrote and in fact it was number one after _ Streets of Bakersfield and
I think it's a great song and I know you heard it but I don't know if you heard Dwight like this.
It's just him [E] and his guitar and that's why I asked him to do it.
It's [A] called Dixie.
[E] Now you need to listen really close to the words because it's really a magnificent song.
Dwight, ready.
Thank you, Buck.
Actually I wrote this after I'd been in LA a few years and I'd been out there and my
brother had come out to visit and we were wandering [Db] around Hollywood one night and saw
some stuff go on that kind of disturbed both of us and a week or so later I [E] was home and
I started writing this and it turned out to be a pretty good one for me.
Number one's pretty good. _ _ _ _

He _ _ _ _ said, way down yonder in the land [Ab] of cotton, [A] the old times they ain't as rotten as [E] they
are on this damn _ dodeley [B] street.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] Then he drew a [Gb] dying [Ab] [A] breath and laid his head against my chest, please [E] Lord, take [B] his soul
back [E] home to Dixie.
_ [G] [E] I _ _ sang Dixie _ _ _ as he died.
_ _ _ People just walked on by _ _ as I _ cried.
_ _ The bottle [A] had rubbed him of all his [E] rebel pride.
_ _ _ _ I sang Dixie _ [B] _ _ _ [E] as he died.
_ _ _ _ He said, listen to me son, while you [G] still [E] can, [A] run back home to that southern land,
don't [E] you see what life here has [B] done to me?
_ _ _ _ [E] Then he closed those old [G] gray [A] eyes and fell against my side, no more [E] pain.
Now [B] he's safe _ back [E] home in Dixie.
_ [G] _ [E] _ _ I sang Dixie _ as _ he died.
_ _ _ People just walked on by _ _ as I _ cried.
_ The [Ab] bottle [A] had rubbed him of all his rebel [E] pride.
_ _ _ So I sang Dixie [B] _ _ _ as [E] he died.
_ _ I _ sang _
_ _ [B] Dixie as [A] he died.
