Bellamy Brothers

^A Pine trees ^D grow so tall in the ^E bright sunshine
^D A young boy ^E steals his daddy's ^A fishin' line
^A An alligator ^D lays on the banks of a ^E riverbed
^D And if you didn't ^E know any better
You'd ^A swear he's dead
Chorus:
^Bm Now these are a ^E few things I'm in ^A love with
A ^Bm small part of the ^E reason I go ^A back
To Caro ^Bm lina Mississsippi ^E Florida gorgeous ^A Georgia
Now if you ^Bm think I'm happy down ^E there
You're on the right ^A track
And you ^D ain't just whistlin ^E Dixie
You ^A ain't just slappin your ^D knee
I'm a ^D grandson of the ^E Southland
An ^A heir to the Conf ^A7 ederacy
You ^D ain't just whistlin ^E Dixie
?Cause the ^A cattle call's callin' me ^D home
So ^D put me down there where I ^E wanna be
^D Plant my feet with ^E Robert E. Lee
^D Bury my bones under a ^E cypress tree
And ^D never ^C#m let ^E me ^A roam
Verse 2:
^A Cotton balls gleam and the ^D cow gives cream for the ^E baby's sake
^D Pa comes in full of ^E gin and he's mean as a ^A rattlesnake
And if the ^A well runs dry and we ^D cry and cuss the ^E garden hose
^D Mama draws a bucket full of ^E creek water just to ^A wash our clothes
(Chorus)
