Little Feat Waiting For Columbus Dixie Chicken -- L. George, F. Martin I've seen the bright lights of Memphis And the Commodore Hotel Where underneath a street lamp I met a Southern belle She took me to the river, where she cast her spell And in that Southern moonlight, she sang a song so well If you'll be my dixie chicken, I'll be your Tenessee lamb And we can walk together down in dixieland Down in dixieland We made all the hot spots. My money flowed like wine Then that low down Southern whiskey began to fog my mind And I don't remember church bells or the money I put down On the white picket fence and boardwalk or the house at the end of town But boy do I remember the strain of her refrain The nights we spent together, and the way she called my name If you'll be my dixie chicken, I'll be your Tenessee lamb And we can walk together down in dixieland Down in dixieland Well it's been a year since she ran away Yes that guitar player sure could play She always liked to sing along He always handy with a song Then one night in the lobby of the Commodore Hotel I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well And as he handed me a drink he began to hum a song And all the boys there, at the bar, began to sign along If you'll be my dixie chicken, I'll be your Tenessee lamb And we can walk together down in dixieland Down in dixieland |
