Dixieland Delight Alabama
[G] Rollin' down-a backwoods<br/>
Tennessee by-[D]-way<br/>
[Em]One arm on the [C] wheel<br/>
Holdin' my [G] lover<br/>
With the [D] other<br/>
[Em]A sweet, soft Southern [C] thrill<br/>
Worked hard all [Em] week<br/>
Got a little [D] jingle<br/>
On a [Em] Tennessee Saturday [C] night<br/>
Couldn't feel [G] better<br/>
I'm to-[D]-gether with my [Cm] Dixieland Delight[G]<br/>
<br/>
Cho:Spend my [D] dollar<br/>
Park in a [Em] holler 'neath the mountain moon-[C]-light<br/>
Hold her [G] up tight<br/>
Make a little [D] lovin'<br/>
A little turtle-[Em]-dovin' on a mason-Dixon [C] night<br/>
Fits my [Em] life<br/>
Oh, so [C] right<br/>
My [Cm] Dixieland De-[G]-light<br/>

Verse 2: (same chords as the first)<br/>
<br/>
White-tail buck deer<br/>
Munchin' on clover<br/>
Red-tail hawk<br/>
Sittin' on a limb<br/>
Chubby old groundhog<br/>
Croakin' bullfrog<br/>
Free as a feelin' in the wind<br/>
Homegrown country girl<br/>
Gonna give me a whirl<br/>
on a Tennessee Saturday night<br/>
Lucky as a seven<br/>
Livin' in heaven<br/>
with my Dixieland Delight<br/>
<br/>
(repeat cho)<br/>
<br/>
a few strange chord progressions follow the 2nd chorus; something like<br/>
<br/>
C, D, Em a couple of times, and I believe the key changes to A (so, of <br/>
course, either capo the 2nd fret now, or play all the chords a whole step <br/>
higher than they are written here)<br/>
<br/>
a fiddle solo ensues, and the tempo increases and they fade out, singing <br/>
verse one again.<br/>
