Goodbye Dixie Lee
Composer(s): Robert Levenson; G. Vernon Strout



Dixie Lee the time has come to say goodbye
Dixie Lee now brush that tear drop from your eye
Tho' I'll leave you far behind 
you'll be always in my mind 
and some day I'll come back, so don't you cry

When the roses start a blooming in the spring
that is when I'll be returning with the ring
on that bright and happy day I will kiss your tears away 
and never once again, dear, will I say

Goodbye Dixie, my Dixie Lee keep a place in your heart for me 
When I'm there way over the foam, I'll dream of you and home
Some day when the sun shines again
we'll be as happy as can be 
let's hope and pray until that day
so goodbye Dixie Lee
