Dixie Boy
Recorded by Alabama
Written by Jim McBride

C G7 C
I was raised in the shadows of an old cotton mill
F C
Back when believin' was the style
Bb7 C
Small town heaven and a big eyed boy
F C
Made sweet music for a while

G7 C
My daddy worked hard down at the old factory
F C
Nights he went to GI school
Bb7 C
He didn't know nothin' bout the silver spoon
F C
But he lived by the golden rule

Dm F
Summer nights he was gone me and momma stayed home
C Bb7 G7
Out on the front porch swing
C F
Wishin' on the stars in the southern sky
C G7 C
And sometimes we used to sing

F C
We were leaning leaning on
F C F
The everlasting arms of love
C F
Livin' all those simple joys
C G7 C
This Dixie boy is made of

G7 C
Got my real education from the TV station
F C
And good ole boys down at the park
Bb7 C
The say Hey Willie and those rockabillies
F C
Made their way into my heart

G7 C
I remember the old folks sittin' round talkin'
F C
On laidback Sunday afternoons
Bb7 C
They said them young folks sure got a hard road
F C
Oh they're growin' up too soon
Dm F
Now I know they were right and as I sit here tonight
C Bb7 G7
Out on the front porch swing
C F
The stars are shinin' in my young boy's eyes
C G7 C
Just like they did for me

Repeat #4 x2
