CHER - Dixie girl (Dixie) lyrics

rate me

<b>Dixie girl (Dixie)</b> by <i>Cher</i><br />When I was a little girl in Dixie

I used to chase the fireflies

Then I grew up and started chasing the guys

Teenage romance what just the thing

Till I got in a family way

Now I'm on my own

And only working in a cheap café

Chorus:

Waiting on tables and passing myself around

Dixie girl, you're the small talk

In a small talking town

I fall in love every day with someone

Who ends up just driving away

While I'm dreaming I'm with him

Going down that west-bound highway

One night a man walked in, he smiled

Took me for a ride in his brand new cadillac

Told me he loved me with all his heart

I told him I loved him too

He said "Goodbye Dixie, I'll be back for you"

(chorus)

Now all I do is read those

Hollywood photograph magazines

Work my shifts for tips

And live alone in my dreams

I'm a Dixie girl who prays some day

She'll be a Delta queen

Find a good man who'll raise me and my baby

Still, I'm

(chorus)(repeat)
