Dixie Girl
When I was a little girl in Dixie I used to chase the fireflies
Then I grew up and started chasing the guys
Teenage romance what just the thing 'till I got in a family way
Now mama only working in a cheap cafe
Waiting on tables and passing myself around
Dixie girl, you're the small talk
In a small talking town
I fall in love every day with someone who ends up just driving away
While I'm dreaming I'm with him going down that westbound highway
One night a man walked in and smiled
And ordered coffee black
Took me for a ride in his brand new cadillac
Told me he loved me with all his heart
I told him I loved him too
He said goodbye Dixie, I'll be back for you
While I'm waiting on tables and passing myself around
Dixie girl, you're the small talk
In a small talking town
I fall in love every day with someone who ends up just driving away
While I'm dreaming I'm with him going down that westbound highway
Now all I do is read those Hollywood photograph magazines
Work my shifts for tips and live alone in my dreams
I'm a Dixie girl who prays some day she'll be a Delta queen
Find a good man who'll raise me and my baby
Still I'm waiting on tables and passing myself around
Dixie girl, you're the small talk in a small talking town
I fall in love every day with someone who ends up just driving away
While I'm dreaming I'm with him going down that westbound highway
Waiting on tables and passing myself around
Ah,Dixie girl, you're the small talk in a small talking town
Then I grew up and started chasing the guys
Teenage romance what just the thing 'till I got in a family way
Now mama only working in a cheap cafe
Waiting on tables and passing myself around
Dixie girl, you're the small talk
In a small talking town
I fall in love every day with someone who ends up just driving away
While I'm dreaming I'm with him going down that westbound highway
One night a man walked in and smiled
And ordered coffee black
Took me for a ride in his brand new cadillac
Told me he loved me with all his heart
I told him I loved him too
He said goodbye Dixie, I'll be back for you
While I'm waiting on tables and passing myself around
Dixie girl, you're the small talk
In a small talking town
I fall in love every day with someone who ends up just driving away
While I'm dreaming I'm with him going down that westbound highway
Now all I do is read those Hollywood photograph magazines
Work my shifts for tips and live alone in my dreams
I'm a Dixie girl who prays some day she'll be a Delta queen
Find a good man who'll raise me and my baby
Still I'm waiting on tables and passing myself around
Dixie girl, you're the small talk in a small talking town
I fall in love every day with someone who ends up just driving away
While I'm dreaming I'm with him going down that westbound highway
Waiting on tables and passing myself around
Ah,Dixie girl, you're the small talk in a small talking town
