intro
Well the grass grows greener down south
and the tea is sweeter down south
the girls are tanner down in lower alabama
we got them georgia peaches down south
way down south
they're brewing white lighning down south
and the fish they're always biting down south
the joints are juking and the soul food's cooking
we get down on some grits down south
Chorus
Please play dixie when i die
lay me down neath that mason dixon line
we drink from dixie cups down south
and we'll sure jack up a truck down south
football's a religion and mama's always in the kitchen
thats just the way it is down south
well we got them crazy cajuns down south
dont you feed them alligators down south
you better watch your mouth when a woman comes around
we love our southern belles down south
Chorus
please play dixie when i die
lay me down neath a big ole georgia pine
well i was born and raised down south
and im sure nough gonna stay down south
write my name in stone when you bury all my bones
im gonna rest in peace down south
down south
