Dixie Lullaby
Lyricist:Leon Russell, Chris Stainton
Gather 'round me people, got a song to sing 'Bout that sweet Magnolia Thyme Black eyed Susan made some catfish stew And papa brought some homemade wine
All the Southern children like to rock 'n' roll The TV mamas tell you why They got it on the boat from Africa It's a Dixie Lullaby
And blind Willie Time, he had a dime shoe shine Stand down on Beale Street And Willie would stop and then he'll say, 'Hello' All the shoes he'd meet
'And why are you so happy?', said the clean white buck 'You got no reason to be happy, Mr Time' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Willie just smile and then he popped out rag And sang a Dixie Lullaby
I'm a ta-ya-hippi, a ta-ya-hippi Now how do you do?
But now you heard the story of my Southern home With a honeysuckle wine Anytime you think that you might come yourself You oughta keep this thought in mind
All you easy riders better watch your step If you're walkin' down below the line That Louisiana man is gonna get you yet With his Dixie Lullaby, oh, it's a Dixie Lullaby Yeah, it's a Dixie Lullaby
