Verse 1:
G
Dixie was the pride of Alabama
G C
I met her on a lonesome midnight train
D G
Rollin' slowly out of Union Station
G D
She was staring out the window at the rain
Verse 2:
G
Well Dixie was from sunny Alabama
G C
Those old steel rails would roll to Birmingham
D G
Mobile, her final destination
G D
I looked down at the ticket in her hand
Chorus:
C D G
Southbound train it ain't you I know that done her wrong
C D G
Say again that you seen it coming all along
G C
All that she knew those sweet memories it's true
G D G
Dixie darling caught her southbound train
Verse 3:
G
Dixie asked if I'd been to Alabama
G C
Her voice was thick like some old southern night
D G
And maybe for the sake of conversation
G D
I said back in '88 or '89
Verse 4:
G
She said her daddy's fields were full of cotton
G C
By the river that she swam in as a child
D G
Lord she loved those sweet magnolia blossoms
G D
And that good ol' Honeysuckle growing wild
Chorus
Verse 5:
G
Dixie told me how she got to Denver
G C
A southern gal who coudn't stand the cold
D G
She fell in love and left Mobile forsaken
G D
Mistaken for a dusty pot of gold
Verse 6:
G
Dixie let the pieces fall together
G C
And painted up this picture in my mind
D G
Mobile, Alabama was a-callin' her back
G D
And the Pride of Alabama was on time
Chorus
