I spent my childhood walking the wildwood
Down along the Dixie line
Freight trains a-squallin', highballs a-bawlin'
Four engines at a time
I was so happy with Momma and Pappy
Down along the Dixie line


             
Can't you hear

              
 those drivers

 
 wail

             
Can't you see

[Solo over verse chords]


A river of whiskey flows down in Dixie
Down along the Dixie line
They pulled up the tracks now, I can't go back now
Can't hardly keep from crying
Oh do they miss me way down in Dixie
Down along the Dixie line

             
Can't you hear

              
 those drivers

 
 wail

             
Can't you see

Wanna catch th

      ...Down
