you aint just whistlin dixie — текст песни (Bellamy Brothers)

Bellamy Brothers–You Ain`t Just Whistlin` Dixie

Verse 1:


A D E
Pine trees grow so tall in the bright sunshine
D E A
A young boy steals his daddy`s fishin` line
A D E
An alligator lays on the banks of a riverbed
D E
And if you didn`t know any better
A
You`d swear he`s dead

Chorus:
Bm E A
Now these are a few things I`m in love with
Bm E A
A small part of the reason I go back
Bm E A
To Carolina Mississsippi Florida gorgeous Georgia
Bm E
Now if you think I`m happy down there
A
You`re on the right track
D E
And you ain`t just whistlin Dixie
A D
You ain`t just slappin your knee
D E
I`m a grandson of the Southland
A A7
An heir to the Confederacy
D E
You ain`t just whistlin Dixie
A D
‘Cause the cattle call`s callin` me home
D E
So put me down there where I wanna be
D E
Plant my feet with Robert E. Lee
D E
Bury my bones under a cypress tree
D Cm E A
And never let me roam

Verse 2:


A D E
Cotton balls gleam and the cow gives cream for the baby`s sake
D E A
Pa comes in full of gin and he`s mean as a rattlesnake
A D E
And if the well runs dry and we cry and cuss the garden hose
D E A
Mama draws a bucket full of creek water just to wash our clothes

(Chorus)
