I'm dreaming tonight of the mountains That's where I long to roam The roosters crow at the break of day In my Dixie home, sweet home Old people here they just don't care I never saw the beat That road ahead is mighty long But it's Dixiland for me --- Instrumental --- I'm going back to my old home In the mountains far away Where the wild red roses smell so sweet And the rippling waters play Old people here they just don't care I never saw the beat That road ahead is mighty long But it's Dixiland for me --- Instrumental --- This city life is not for me I'm going where the neighbors speak That road ahead is mighty long But it's Dixiland for me Old people here they just don't care I never saw the beat That road ahead is mighty long But it's Dixiland for me That road ahead is mighty long But it's Dixiland for me...
