Part A-1
Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old things they are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland
Part B-1
Oh I wish I was in Dixie, away, away
In Dixieland I take my stand to live and die in Dixie
Part A-2
Cause Dixieland, that's where I was born
Early Lord one frosty morning
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland
Part C-1
Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on
Part D-1
So hush little baby
Don't you cry...
You know your daddy's bound to die
But all my trials, Lord will soon be over
Instrumental
....
Part E
Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on
His truth is marching on.
