DIXIE HIGHWAY
Alan Jackson
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find
G
A wood frame house and a gravel driveway
C G
Willow trees and old front porch
D7 G
Just outside the city limits, out on highway 34
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find
G
That rabbit tobacco, growing on the roadside
C G
Rolled it up and we smoked it down.
G
Don’t do much, but it makes you feel big
D7 G
When you’re ten years old in a tiny town
G C G
Yeah I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
Yeah I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find
G
Have a chicken pen right in the backyard
C G
Close line running east to west
G
Butterbean and tomato garden
D7 G
Six days and a Sunday rest
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find.
G C G
Summertime, hot and hazy, bare feet, and a water hose
G
Melon winee on a country table
D7 G
Lightning bugs when the sun goes down.
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find.
G
The holy ghost on a Sunday morning,
C G
Gospel songs and a Bible read
D7 G
Sunday lunch at momma’s table, thank the Lord and break the bread.
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find.
G
A screened in porch right out the backdoor,
C G
Washin' machine and an old wood stove
D7 G
Momma singin’ in the kitchen, rollin' homemade biscuit dough
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find
G
When I’m old and Heaven’s calling
C G
And they come to carry me away
G
Just lay me down, down in the southland
D7 G
Bury me in the Georgia clay
G C G
I was born on the Dixie Highway, red clay and Georgia pines
D7 C G
I was raised on the Dixie Highway, no sweeter place you’ll ever find
