Dixie was the pride of Alaba^Gma I^G met her on a lonesome midnight tr^Cain Ro^Dllin' slowly out of Union ^GStation S^Ghe was staring out the window at the r^Dain

[Verse 2]

W^Gell Dixie was from sunny Alabama T^Ghose old steel rails would roll to Birm^Cingham M^Dobile, her final desti^Gnation I^G looked down at the ticket in her h^Dand

[Chorus]

Southbound tr^Cain it ain't y^Dou I know that done^G her wrong Say ag^Cain that you s^Deen it coming a^Gll along A^Gll that she knew those sweet m^Cemories it's true Dixie d^Garling caught her s^Douthbound tr^Gain

[Verse 3]

D^Gixie asked if I'd been to Alabama H^Ger voice was thick like some old southern ni^Cght And ma^Dybe for the sake of convers^Gation I^G said back in '88 or '^D89

[Verse 4]

S^Ghe said her daddy's fields were full of cotton B^Gy the river that she swam in as a ch^Cild L^Dord she loved those sweet magnolia ^Gblossoms A^Gnd that good ol' Honeysuckle growing ^Dwild

[Chorus]

[Verse 5]

D^Gixie told me how she got to Denver A^G southern gal who coudn't stand the c^Cold She f^Dell in love and left Mobile for^Gsaken M^Gistaken for a dusty pot of ^Dgold

[Verse 6]

D^Gixie let the pieces fall together A^Gnd painted up this picture in my m^Cind Mobile, Ala^Dbama was a-c^Gallin' her back A^Gnd the Pride of Alabama was on t^Dime

[Chorus]
