th Fret 



Intro: G       D   G 


Way down south below the Mason-Dixon line 

Down where the honeysuckles are entwined 
D 
That's where the winds are blowing 
G 
That's where the daisies' growing 

The girls of North in their gay finery 

Whirling around in society 
D 
Singing songs about Dixie darling 
                G 
Where I long to be 


          
My Dixie darling, listen to the song I sing 
            D                   G 
Beneath the silver moon, with my banjo right in tune 

My heart is ever true, I love no one but you 
         D                G 
My Dixie darling, my Dixie queen
