Tear drops falling still
Never knowing when they'll stop
In the deep heart of Dixie
Morning those we have lost
Dixie brings us home again
To bury the ones we love
To inspire us on the living
To bear her fruit for not
Oh Dixie bright Dixie
You'll shine on ever more
Growing to your heights of glory
Although others may scorn
You've come through tyranny
To bring forth a bright new day
Whenever you lose one of yours
Your strength shines even more
Oh Dixie bright Dixie
You'll shine on ever more
Growing to your heights of glory
Although others may scorn
You've come through tyranny
To bring forth a bright new day
Whenever you lose one of yours
Your strength shines even more
Oh Dixie bright Dixie
You'll shine on ever more
Growing to your heights of glory
Although others may scorn
Forsaking all others
Your strength forges on
You've fought your battles bravely
To bring forth a bright new day
Oh Dixie bright Dixie
You'll shine on ever more
Growing to your heights of glory
Although others may scorn
Oh Dixie bright Dixie
You'll shine on ever more
Growing to your heights of glory
Although others may scorn
Oh Dixie bright Dixie
You'll shine on ever more
