I have walked greener pastures. And I’ve made a lot of hay.
I’ve gone fast and even faster. I’ve been lost and
found my way.Got a whole lot out of livin’, my simple
southern life. Tried to do my share of givin’, and I know
my soul’s all right.So, everybody whistle Dixie, when
they lay me in the ground. When that cold wind comes to get
me, I don’t want nobodystandin’ ‘round sheddin’ tears and
feelin’ sorry. ‘Cause I’m gone to see my God. Everybody
whistle Dixie. Let ‘em lay me ‘neath the
sod.There’s a peace of mind in knowin’ that some
things are meant to be. Like the way my age is showin’ and
that you were made for me. Like the sweet Savannah
sunshine, and the Louisiana rain. Things that make this
life worth living and keep a man from going insane.So,
everybody whistle Dixie, when they lay me in the ground.
When that cold wind comes to get me, I don’t want
nobody standin’ ‘round sheddin’ tears and feelin’ sorry.
‘Cause I’m gonna go to see my God. Hey everybody whistle
Dixie. Let ‘em lay me ‘neath the sod.Lord, I love
the land of cotton. Yeah, but someday I’ll say goodbye.
‘Cause there’s a better home awaitin’. (There’s a better
home awaitin’) Yeah, there’s a mansion in the
sky.Everybody whistle Dixie. (Everybody, everybody)
Oh when they lay me in the ground. (When they lay me in the
ground) When that cold wind comes to get me. Don’t
want nobody standin’ ‘round sheddin’ tears and feelin’ sorry.
(Don’t want nobody feelin’ sorry) ‘Cause I’m gone to
see my God. (I’m goin’, I’m goin’) Everybody whistle Dixie.
(Everybody whistle Dixie) Let ‘em lay me ‘neath the sod.
Yeah, everybody whistle Dixie. (Everybody whistle Dixie)
Just let ‘em lay me ‘neath the sod.(Everybody whistle
Dixie, everybody)
