<br />
And the roof lets the rain seep in;<br />
<br />
The old four walls are ready to fall,<br />

And the sign reads, "This House Condemned."<br />

Once a mighty plantation,<br />

<br />
Before they tear her down, before she hits the ground,<br />
<br />
I`ll bet this is what she would say:<br />
<br />
<br />

Early on one frosty morn, they raised my timbers and I was born;<br />
<br />
Lord, I remember the day;<br />
<br />
The mighty oak became my soul, the Delta dawn kept me from the cold,<br />

Lord, Lord, look away.<br />

I`ve seen history, Robert E. Lee, and Johnny Reb hold his head up high;<br />

But Dixieland, you will never die.<br />

The magnolia trees are swayin` in the breeze,<br />

As if to hang their heads and cry.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The ballroom is quiet and empty,<br />
<br />
Where the bands once used to play;<br />
<br />
And the battlefields are resting and still,<br />
<br />
With the ghosts of the blue and the gray.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This house has seen it all, Lord,<br />

As time kept marching on;<br />

But I`ll bet these walls can recall<br />
<br />
A story all their own.<br />

On their way to New Orleans;<br />

against the wall,<br />

Getting` by on hopes and dreams.<br />

The shutters are cracked and dry now,

And the roof lets the rain seep in;

The old four walls are ready to fall,

And the sign reads, "This House Condemned."

Once a mighty plantation,

When a nation was at war;

When mothers prayed for sons that went away,

And cried for ones that came back no more.

But oh, if this house could talk, Lord,

Of Dixieland`s final days;

Before they tear her down, before she hits the ground,

I`ll bet this is what she would say:

Early on one frosty morn, they raised my timbers and I was born;

Lord, I remember the day;

The mighty oak became my soul, the Delta dawn kept me from the cold,

Lord, Lord, look away.

I`ve seen history, Robert E. Lee, and Johnny Reb hold his head up high;

They can tear me down, down, down,

But Dixieland, you will never die.

The garden gate is rusty,

And the well`s dusty and dry;

The magnolia trees are swayin` in the breeze,

As if to hang their heads and cry.

The ballroom is quiet and empty,

Where the bands once used to play;

And the battlefields are resting and still,

With the ghosts of the blue and the gray.

This house has seen it all, Lord,

As time kept marching on;

But I`ll bet these walls can recall

A story all their own.

I`ve seen King Cotton touch the sky,and riverboats floatin` by,

On their way to New Orleans;

I`ve bowed with people standin` tall,with their backs pushed up

against the wall,

Getting` by on hopes and dreams.

I`ve seen southern belles ____________

And ________ with their heads held high,

They can tear me down, down, down,

But Dixieland, you will never die.

Dixieland, you will never die.
