Songtexte Is It True What They Say About Dixie (Live) - Al Jolson

Is it true what they say about Dixie?
Does the sun really shine all the time?
Do the sweet magnolias blossom at everybody's door?
And do folks keep eating possum 'til they can't eat no more?

Is it true what they say about Swanee?
Is a dream by that stream so sublime?
Do they laugh, do they love, like they do in every song?
If it's true, that's where I belong

People brag, people boast and consistently drink a dose
To a place that lots of them place at the top of the list
Are they wrong, are they right
Is there a reason for their delight?
Why must live in doubt 'til the day that I find out?

Is it true what they say about Dixie?
Does the sun really shine all the time?
Do the sweet magnolias blossom at everybody's door?
And do folks keep eating possum 'til they can't eat no more?

Is it true what they say about Swanee?
Is a dream by that stream so sublime?
Do they laugh, do they love, like they say in every song?
If it's true, that's where I belong

I say do they laugh, do they love, like they do in every song?
Haha, that's pretty
If it's true, that's where I belong
