Lyrics Dixie Fried (Alternate) - Carl Perkins
On
the
outskirts
of
town,
there′s
a
little
night
spot.
Dan
dropped
in
about
five
o'clock.
Pulled
off
his
coat,
said
"The
night
is
short."
He
reached
in
his
pocket
and
he
flashed
a
quart.
He
hollered,
"Rave
on,
children,
I′m
with
ya!
Rave
on,
cats,"
he
cried.
"It's
almost
dawn,
the
cops
are
gone.
Let's
all
get
Dixie
fried."
Well,
Dan
got
happy
and
he
started
raving.
He
pulled
out
a
razor,
but
he
wasn′t
shaving.
And
all
the
cats
knew
to
jump
and
hop,
Cause
he
was
born
and
raised
in
a
butcher
shop.
He
hollered,
"Rave
on,
children,
I′m
with
ya!
Rave
on,
cats,"
he
cried.
"It's
almost
dawn,
the
cops
are
gone.
Let′s
all
get
Dixie
fried."
The
cops
heard
Dan
when
he
started
to
shout.
They
all
ran
in
to
see
what
it
was
about.
And
I
heard
him
holler
as
they
led
him
away.
He
turned
his
head,
and
this
is
what
he
had
to
say.
He
hollered,
"Rave
on
children,
I'm
with
ya!
Rave
on,
cats,"
he
cried.
"It′s
almost
dawn,
the
cops
are
gone.
Let's
all
get
Dixie
fried."
Now,
Dan
was
the
bravest
man
that
we
ever
saw.
He
let
us
all
know
he
wasn′t
scared
of
the
law.
And
through
The
black
crossed
bar
he
tossed
a
note.
And
it
said
"It
ain't
my
fault,
hon,
that
I'm
in
here."
But
He
hollered,
"Rave
on,
children,
I′m
with
you!
Rave
on,
cats,"
he
cried.
"It′s
almost
dawn,
the
cops
ain't
gone,
And
I′ve
been
Dixie
fried."
