Lynn Anderson - Dixieland You Will Never Die слова песни




The shutters are cracked and dry now,And the roof lets the rain seep in;The old four walls are ready to fall,And the sign reads, "This House Condemned."Once a mighty plantation,When a nation was at war;When mothers prayed for sons that went away,And cried for ones that came back no more.But oh, if this house could talk, Lord,Of Dixieland`s final days;Before they tear her down, before she hits the ground,I`ll bet this is what she would say: Early on one frosty morn, they raised my timbers and I was born; Lord, I remember the day; The mighty oak became my soul, the Delta dawn kept me from the cold, Lord, Lord, look away. I`ve seen history, Robert E. Lee, and Johnny Reb hold his head up high; They can tear me down, down, down, But Dixieland, you will never die.The garden gate is rusty, And the well`s dusty and dry;The magnolia trees are swayin` in the breeze,As if to hang their heads and cry.The ballroom is quiet and empty,Where the bands once used to play;And the battlefields are resting and still,With the ghosts of the blue and the gray.This house has seen it all, Lord,As time kept marching on;But I`ll bet these walls can recallA story all their own. I`ve seen King Cotton touch the sky, and riverboats floatin` by, On their way to New Orleans; I`ve bowed with people standin` tall, with their backs pushed up against the wall, Getting` by on hopes and dreams. I`ve seen southern belles _____ ____ ___ And ________ with their heads held high, They can tear me down, down, down, But Dixieland, you will never die.Dixieland, you will never die.
