Hey Dixie
Hey Dixie.
You were pretty
Smart, weren't
You?
You packed up
And left your
Dead end town
Deadened life.
Hey Dixie.
You were pretty
Sad, weren't
You?
Girls like
You, girls like
Us are
Often sad.
Hey Dixie.
You were pretty
Scared, weren't
You?
Ran, you ran
And I never found
Out if you ever caught
Up with yourself.
Hey Dixie.
You were pretty
Strong, weren't
You?
Stronger than the
Coffee and whiskey
Stronger than your
Lipstick lullabies.
Hey Dixie.
You and I are
Not the same
Are we?
You had a heart
And I've got a soul
Yet you took the
Easy way out.
Hey Dixie.
I guess you were
Pretty smart
Huh?
