Dixie lullaby Lyrics
Dixie lullaby by Pat Green
From a lifetime spent in the cottonfields
Though he'd come home tired and dirty almost every night
He found the strength to smile at me and hold my mama tight
While that old transistor radio would play the opry out in the hall
I'd sit and watch their shadows glide across the wall
And they'd dance to a dixie lullaby
Picture of love beneath the southern sky
Oh, my, what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby
I left home at eighteen in a hand me down chevrolet
Packed my mamas goodness and my old mans stubborn ways
It was college, work, and love, then the babies came
The youngest ones got his grandaddy's name
And in the early morning hours when my children could not sleep
I'd rock them in my arms to a simple beat
And I'd sing them a dixie lullaby
Hush, baby, don't you start to cry
Oh, my, what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby
My father was a mountain of a man
That was the description that I gave
The morning that we laid him in his grave
There with my mama by his side, we said our last goodbye
To a man we thought would never die
As I stood there in the fields of amazing grace
Oh, how the tears ran down my face
And I sang him a dixie lullaby
We'll meet again, by and by
Oh, my, what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby
Oh, my, what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullabyPat Green Lyrics Index
