Verse 1

HEL-LO, THERE, STRAN-GER! HOW DO YOU DO?
THERE'S SOME-THING I'D LIKE TO SAY TO YOU
DON'T BE SUR-PRISED, YOU'RE RE-COG-NIZED
I'M NO DE-TEC-TIVE BUT I'VE JUST SUR-MISED.
YOU'RE FROM THE PLACE WHERE I LONG TO BE,
YOUR SMIL-ING FACE SEEMS TO SAY TO ME
YOU'RE FROM MY OWN LAND, MY SUN-NY HOME-LAND,,
TELL ME CAN IT BE

Verse 2

IT WAS A WAY BACK IN EIGHT-Y NINE,
I CROSSED THE OLD MA-SON DIXON LINE
GEE! BUT I'VE YEARNED, LONGED TO RE-TURN
TO ALL THE GOOD OLD PALS I LEFT BE-HIND.
MY HOME IS WAY DOWN IN A-LA-BAM'
ON A PLAN-TA-TION NEAR BIR-MING-HAM,
AND ONE THING'S CER-TAIN, I'M SURE-LY FLIR-TIN'
WITH THOSE SOUTH-BOUND TRAINS.

Chorus

ARE YOU FROM DIX-IE? I SAID FROM DIX-IE!
WHERE THE FIELDS OF COT-TON BECK-ON TO ME.
I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU, TELL ME HOW BE YOU
AND THE FRIENDS I'M LONG-ING TO SEE
IF YOU'RE FROM A-LA-BA-MA, TEN-NES-SEE OR CA-RO-LINE
A-NY PLACE BE-LOW THE MA-SON DIX-ON LINE,
THEN YOU'RE FROM DIX-IE, HUR-RAY FOR DIX-IE!
'CAUSE I'M FROM DIX-IE TOO!
