  • Alabama Dixie Boy Lyrics

           

    Words and Music by Jim McBride



    Iwas raised in the shadow of an old cotton mill, back when believin' was in

    style.

    Smalltown heaven and a big-eyed boy made sweet music for a while.

    My daddy worked hard down at the facotry.

    Nights he went to G.I. school.

    He didn't know nothin' 'bout the silver spoon, but he lived by the golden

    rule.



    Summer nights he was gone; me and mama stayed home, out on the front porch

    swing, wishin' on the stars in the southern sky, and sometimes we used to

    sing.



    We were leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms of love, livin' all the

    simple joys this Dixie boy is made of.



    Got my real educationfrom the T.V. station and good ole boys down at the

    park.

    The say "Hey, Willie" and those rock-a-billies played their way into my

    heart.

    I remember the old folks sittin' 'round talkin' on laidback Sunday

    afternoons.

    They said them young folks sure got a hard road.

    Oh, they're growin' up too soon.

    Now I know they were right, and as I sit here tonight out on the front porch

    swing, the stars are shinin' in my young boy's eyes, just like they did for

    me;



    We are leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms of love, livin' all the

    simple joys this Dixie boy is made of.
