Dixie Lullaby
My father had skin like leather,
Hands like steel
From a lifetime spent in the cotton fields.
Though he'd come home tired and dirty
Almost every night
He found the strength to smile at me
And hold my mama tight.
While that old transister radio
Would play the Opry out in the hall
I'd sit and watch their shadows glide across the wall
And they'd dance to a dixie lullaby
A picture of love beneath the southern sky
Oh my, what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby
I left home at 18
In a hand me down Chevrolet
Packed my mama's goodness
And my old man's stubborn ways
It was college, work and love
Then the babies came,
The youngest one's got his granddaddy's name,
And in the early morning hours
When my children could not sleep
I'd rock them in my arms to a simple beat
And I'd sing them a dixie lullaby
Hush baby dont you start to cry
Oh my what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby
My father was a mountain of a man
That was the description that I gave,
The morning that we laid him in his grave
There with my mama by his side
We said our last goodbye
To a man we thought would never die
And as I stood there in the fields of amazing grace
Oh how the tears ran down my face
And I sang him a dixie lullaby
We'll meet again, by and by
Oh my what a beautiful life
Just like a dixie lullaby
Oh my what a beautiful life,
Just like a dixie lullaby....
