You aint just whistling dixie

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 C#m 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)
