TITLE: Dixie Chicken
Lyrics and Chords
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp
I met a Southern belle
/ G - / - D / - - / - G /
Well, she took me to the river
Where she cast a spell
And in that Southern moonlight
She sang this song so well
/ C G / - D / - - / - G /
{Refrain}
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together
Down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland, whoa whoa whaoo
/ G - / - D / - - / GF G / GF G /
Yeah well, we made all the hot spots
My money flowed like wine
And then that low-down Southern whiskey
Began to fog my mind
And I don't remember church bells
Or the money I put down
On the white picket-fence and boardwalk
Of the house at the edge of town
Oh, but boy do I remember
The strain of her refrain
And the nights we spent together
And the way she called my name
{Refrain}
Yeah, well it's been a year since she ran away
Guess that guitar player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
She's always handy with a song
Then one night in the lobby
Of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender
Who said he knew her well
And as he handed me a drink
He began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar
Began to sing along
{Refrain}
