<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>
