Dixieland Hymn 1
Country Gospel
Lyrics
Description
Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton, Old things they are not forgotten,
Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland! Oh, I wish I was in Dixie, Away, away, in
Dixieland, I take my stand, To live and die in Dixie′s hand, Cause Dixieland, that′s
where I was born, Early lord, one frosty morn, So hush little baby, don′t you cry,
Your daddy′s bound to meet the sky, But all my trials, lord, will soon be over, Glory, glory hallelujah, His truth is marching on.
Glory, glory hallelujah, His truth is marching on, Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland!
Look away, look away, look away, His truth is marching on, His truth is marching on,
Glory, glory hallelujah, His truth is marching on.
