[Hank Williams Jr. - Dixie on My Mind lyrics]
All the stations up here
They don't sign off with "Dixie"
The way they did in sweet home Alabam'
And the people here don't
Sip Jack Daniels whiskey the way they do in
The Tennessee mountain land
I'd always heard lots about the big apple
So I thought I'd come up here and see
But all I've seen so far is one big hassle
Wish I was camped out on the Okeechobee
If this is the promised land
I've had all I can stand
And I'm headed back below that Dixie line
No, I just don't fit in and
I'll never come back again
But I'm busted here and I
Got Dixie on my mind
Oh, and I'm stuck up here and
I got Dixie on my mind
These people never smile or say a word
They're all too busy trying to
Make an extra dime
Oh, I'd love to haul 'em
All down around Spartanburg
And show 'em how they raise hell in Caroline
Oh, the things you know that
I miss most of all
Is the freedom of the rivers and the pines
They don't do much huntin'
And fishin' up here, you know
But I have met a few
Squirrels and one porcupine
Well if this is the promised land
I've had all I can stand
Wish I was down in Houston town tonight
No, I just don't fit in and
I'll never come back again
But I'm busted here and I
Got Dixie on my mind
Oh, and I'm stuck up here and
Got Dixie on my mind
They don't sign off with "Dixie"
The way they did in sweet home Alabam'
And the people here don't
Sip Jack Daniels whiskey the way they do in
The Tennessee mountain land
I'd always heard lots about the big apple
So I thought I'd come up here and see
But all I've seen so far is one big hassle
Wish I was camped out on the Okeechobee
If this is the promised land
I've had all I can stand
And I'm headed back below that Dixie line
No, I just don't fit in and
I'll never come back again
But I'm busted here and I
Got Dixie on my mind
Oh, and I'm stuck up here and
I got Dixie on my mind
These people never smile or say a word
They're all too busy trying to
Make an extra dime
Oh, I'd love to haul 'em
All down around Spartanburg
And show 'em how they raise hell in Caroline
Oh, the things you know that
I miss most of all
Is the freedom of the rivers and the pines
They don't do much huntin'
And fishin' up here, you know
But I have met a few
Squirrels and one porcupine
Well if this is the promised land
I've had all I can stand
Wish I was down in Houston town tonight
No, I just don't fit in and
I'll never come back again
But I'm busted here and I
Got Dixie on my mind
Oh, and I'm stuck up here and
Got Dixie on my mind
