Mame movie - MAME lyrics
rate me<br>
Chorus:<br>
You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame,<br>
You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame,<br>
You've got that banjoes strummin'<br>
And plunkin' out a tune to beat the band,<br>
The whole plantation's hummin'<br>
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land.<br>
You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame,<br>
You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame,<br>
Who ever thought a Yankee would put<br>
A little Dixie mouse to shame.<br>
You've made us feel alive again,<br>
You've given us the drive again,<br>
To make the South revive again, Mame.<br>
Beauregard Burnside:<br>
You've brought the cake-walk back into style, Mame<br>
You make the weepin' willow tree smile, Mame,<br>
Your skin is Dixie satin,<br>
There's rebel in your manner and your speech,<br>
You may be from Manhattan,<br>
But Georgia never had a sweeter peach.<br>
All:<br>
You make our black-eyed peas and our grits, Mame,<br>
Seem like the bill of fare at the Ritz, Mame,<br>
You came, you saw, you conquered<br>
And absolutely nothing is the same.<br>
You're special fascination'll prove to be inspirational,<br>
We think you're just sensational, Mame.<br>
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land.<br>
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land.<br>
You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame,<br>
You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame,<br>
You've got that banjoes strummin'<br>
And plunkin' out a tune to beat the band,<br>
The whole plantation's hummin'<br>
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land.<br>
You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame,<br>
You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame,<br>
Who ever thought a Yankee would put<br>
A little Dixie mouse to shame.<br>
You've made us feel alive again,<br>
You've given us the drive again,<br>
To make the South revive again, Mame.<br>
Mame! Mame! Mame! Mame!<br>
