Song: Whistling Dixie Tab
You Ain't Just Whistling Dixie
By The Bellamy Brothers
G C D
The pines trees grow so tall in the bright sunshine
C D G
Young boy steals his daddy's fishing line
G C D
Alligator lays on the banks of the river bed
C D G
And if you did not know any better you'd swear he's dead
Am D G
Now these are a few things I'm in love with
Am D G Am
D G
A small part of the reasons I go back to Carolina, Mississippi, Florida
gorgeous Georgia
Am D
G G7
Now if you think I'm happy down there your on the right track
C D G
C
c. And you ain't just whistling Dixie you ain't just slapping your knee
D G G7
I'm a grandson of the southland and heir to the confederacy
C D G
C
You ain't just whistling Dixie cause the cattle calls calling me home
D C
D
So put me down there where I want to be, plant my feet with Robert E. Lee
C D C Bm Am G
Bury my bones under a cypress tree and never let me roam
G C
D
The cotton balls gleam and the cows give cream for the baby's sake
C D G
And pa comes in full of gin and he's mean as a rattle snake
C D
And the well runs dry and we cry and cuss the garden hose
C D
G
And mama draws a bucket full of sweet water just to wash our cloths
repeat chorus:
