Am   Am    Am   E   Am


Am
If I ever get out of dixie
Ima buy me some brand new shoes
E                                                    Am
I'm gonna have somebody shine 'em up soon as I pay my dues
Am
If I ever get out of Tennessee
Out from 'neath this dust and dirt
E                                                           Am
I'm gonna live just like a high and mighty gonna get what I deserve


C
When I cross that line man I'll sing a brand new song
E                                          
instead of sitting here by the railroad tracks whilstlin'
Am
dixie all day long
C
I'm so tired of paying and praying for my sins
E
Lord get me out o' dixie land in Jesus' name
Am
Amen


Am
Was the mines that killed my daddy
Was the law that killed my man
E                                                          Am
Was the bible belt that whipped me when I broke the fifth command
Am
I don't hate the weather
I don't hate the land
E                                              Am
But if I had my way I'd never see this place again


C
 When I cross that line man I'll sing a brand new song
E                                          
instead of sitting here by the railroad tracks whilstlin'
Am
dixie all day long
C
I'm so tired of paying and praying for my sins
E
Lord get me out o' dixie land in Jesus' name
Am
Amen

When I tread out of these parts look me up on the other side
E                                              Am
Cos I'll be damned if I go down in dixie when I die
E                                                Am
Yeah I'll be damned if I go down in dixie when I die
