I sang Dixie as

he died
But people just

walked on by
As I cried
The bottle has robbed
him of all his

rebel pride
I sang Dixie as

he died
I said way down

yonder in the land
of cotton
Old times there ain't

near as rotten
As they are on this

damned old
L. A. street
He drew a

dying breath
And laid his head

against my chest
And I sang Dixie as

he died
But people just

walked on by
As I cried
The bottle has robbed
him of all his

rebel pride
I sang Dixie as

he died
He said listen to me

son while you

still can
Don't you see what

life here has done
for me
Then he closed those

old blue eyes
No more pain now
he's safe
Back home in Dixie
I sang Dixie as

he died
But people just

walked on by
As I cried
The bottle has robbed
him of all his

rebel pride
I sang Dixie as

he died
