[Verse 1]
A
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis
E7
And the Commodore Hotel
E7 A
And underneath a street lamp I met a Southern belle
D A E7
Where she took me to the river where she cast her spell
A
And in that Southern moonlight she sang a song so well
[Chorus]
A
If you'll be my dixie chicken
E7
I'll be your Tenessee lamb
A
And we can walk together down in dixieland
Down in dixieland
[Verse 2]
A E7
Well we made all the hot spots. My money flowed like wine
A
Then that low down Southern whiskey began to fog my mind
D A E7
And I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
E7 A
On the white picket fence and boardwalk of the house at the edge of town
D A E7
But boy do I remember the strain of her refrain
A
The nights we spent together, and the way she called my name
[Chorus]
A
If you'll be my dixie chicken
E7
I'll be your Tenessee lamb
A
And we can walk together down in dixieland
Down in dixieland
[Verse 3]
A
Well it's been a year since she ran away
E7
Yes that guitar player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
A
She's always handy with a song
D A E7
Then one night in the lobby of the Commodore Hotel
A
I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well
D A E7
And as he handed me a drink he began to hum a song
E7 A
And all the boys there, at the bar, began to sign along
[Chorus]
A
If you'll be my dixie chicken
E7
I'll be your Tenessee lamb
A
And we can walk together down in dixieland
Down in dixieland
