[Verse 1]
C                F
   Why don't you gather round me 
people
      D                       G   
Got a song to sing about that 
           C
sweet magnolia thyme
F                            D7
  Black-eyed Susan made some catfish
 stew
    G7                         C
And papa brought some homemade wine

[Chorus]
F                                 
All you southern children like to 
C
rock'n roll
    F                  C
The TV mommas tell you why
     F                        D7
They got it on the boat from Africa
          G7         C
It's that Dixie Lullaby

[Verse 2]
F                               
Well Blind Willie Time he had a 
D7              G
dime shoe shine stand
Continues after the ad
              C
Down on Beale Street
    F                             
And Willie would stop and just to 
D
say hello
G                  C
All the shoes he'd meet

[Chorus]
F                             C
Why are you so happy said the clean 
white buck
           F                      
You got no reason to be happy Mr. 
C
Time
    F                          C  
And Willie would stop and just pop
     D7
 his rag
       G7         C
With a Dixie Lullaby

[Verse 3]
   F                           
So now you know the story of my 
 D7
southern home
       G7          C
With a honeysuckle wine
F                                 
And if you ever think that you 
   D7
might come yourself
             G7                   
You ought to keep this thought in 
C
mind

[Chorus]
F                          C
All you easy riders better watch 
your step
              F                    
And if you're walkin' down below 
  C
the line
     F                      D7
That Louisiana man is gonna get you 
yet
         G7         C  D
With his Dixie Lullaby
