Текст песни The Ballad of Dixie - Thomas Mac

Well, folks, here's the story 'bout a cowgirl named Dixie
Her mother, she was a roamin' gypsy
She spent her days waitin' tables
And at night singin' out to every club she was able

Yippee ki yi oh (Yippee ki yi oh)
Yippee ki yi ay (Yippee ki yi ay)
Woah (Woah)
Hey

She got her voice from her daddy
But he hitchhiked north somewhere near Cincinnati
And he didn't leave her a thing
But damn, that little cowgirl, she sure could sing

Yippee ki yi oh (Yippee ki yi oh)
Yippee ki yi ay (Yippee ki yi ay)
Woah (Woah)
Hey

Well, Dixie had a big gig one evenin'
And she sounded damn good that night
And oh, when she finished that evenin'
Backstage there stood a suit and tie
And he promised her fame and fortune
Swore it all on his mother's grave
"Just sign right here, Dixie darlin'
I promise your whole life will change"

Yippee ki yi oh (Yippee ki yi oh)
Yippee ki yi ay (Yippee ki yi ay)
Woah (Woah)
Hey

Well, nobody knows quite what happened
Some say that she changed her name
The only thing that there's sure happened
Her sweet voice was never heard again
You see, that night Dixie, she vanished
And like her daddy, she didn't leave a thing
But at that same bar, when it's real, real late
Some say they still hear her sing

Yippee ki yi oh (Yippee ki yi oh)
Yippee ki yi ay (Yippee ki yi ay)
Woah (Woah)
Hey

Well, folks, here's the story 'bout a cowgirl named Dixie
