Way down South in Dixie
(Break the heart of me)
They hung my dark young lover
In a cross roads tree.
Way down South in Dixie
(Bruised body high in air)
I asked the white Lord Jesus
What was the use of prayer
Way down south in Dixie
(Break the heart of me)
Love is a naked shadow
On a gnarled and naked tree.
