Hag's Dixie Blues #2 - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

I got the blues for Mississippi I got the blues for Tennessee

Anywhere south there’d be Dixon line it’s where I long to be

When I get a lonesome feeling down in my rambling shoes

Head down stream towards New Orleans cause I got the Dixie blues.

Talk about Memphis, talk about the town

Thinkin' 'bout my southern belle

Talk about Chicago where the cold wind blows

There ain’t got chance and well.

I got the blues for Georgia Carolina’s callin' me

I’m gonna pack my grip and I’ll be gone like a southwind blowing free

When I get a lonesome feeling down in my rambling shoes

I head down stream towards New Orleans cause I got the Dixie blues, yes.

Talk about Memphis, talk about the town

Thinkin' 'bout my southern belle

Talk about Chicago where the cold wind blows

There ain’t got chance and well.

When I get the blues for Georgia Carolina’s callin' me

I’m gonna pack my grip and I’ll be gone like a southwind blowing free

When I get a lonesome feeling down in my rambling shoes

I head down stream towards New Orleans cause I got the Dixie blues, yes…
