Lyrics
I seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel
Underneath the street lamp
I met a southern belle
She took me to the river
Where she cast her spell
In that southern moonlight
She sang a song so well
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
We can walk together
Down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
Well, we made all the hotspots
The money flowed like wine
Then that low down southern whiskey
Began to fog my mind
And I don't remember church bells
Or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk
Of that house at the edge of town
But, boy, do I remember
The strain of her refrain
And the nights we spent together
And the way that she called my name
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
We can walk together
Down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
It's been a year since she went away
Guess that guitar player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
She's always handy with a song
But then one night in the lobby
Of the Commodore Hotel
I chanced to meet a bartender
Who said that he knew her well
And as he handed me a drink
He began to hum a song
All the boys down at the bar
Began to sing along
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
We can walk together
Down in Dixieland
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
We can walk together
Down in Dixieland
Down in Dixieland
