long tailed cat sitting by the old rocking chair
he don't realize that there's a danger there
he don't care if no rockin and roll chair
is gonna boogie on his day
cause he's swinging his tail to a low down syncapate
F#                                      B7
i'm going down to new orleans town on a dixie holiday
E7                                   A7  G#7-A7
to get myself, a hunk of that harmony    yeah-aye
(same chords as last two)
you may be a symphony but i believe in song
it's got a catchy melody so you can sing along

A7...etc
woah they say talking bout the girls that work up town
i don't realize that there's a danger now
no swinging tail on no rockin n roll girl
is gonna boogie woogie on my day,
                  just making time to a dixie holiday
F#...etc
i'm going down to new orleans town, to get a pound of feed
be back home in just about a half of week
you may be a symphony but i believe in song
it's got a catchy melody so you can sing along
everybody sing a long long
don't know what you sing along long
hey you're gonna sing along
all you sing is

A7              D
all you sing is oh my oh my my hey hey
E7                               A7
your daddy getting older and the cows are going dry
you gotta go by, go bye bye
on a dixie holiday  yeah y-aye

repeat
repeat
