I like it    I don't like it

When I was a little girl in Dixie

I used to chase the fireflies

Then I grew up and started chasing the guys

Teenage romance what just the thing

Till I got in a family way

Now mama only working in a cheap cafe

[Chorus:]

Waiting on tables and passing myself around

Dixie girl, you're the small talk

In a small talking town

I fall in love every day with someone

Who ends up just driving away

While I dreaming I with him

Going down that west bound highway

One night a man walks in and smiles

And orders coffee black

Took me for a ride in his brand new cadillac

Told me he loved me with all his heart

I told him I loved him too

He said goodbye Dixie, I'll be back for you

[Chorus]

Now all I do is read those

Hollywood photograph magazines

Work my shifts for tips

And live alone in my dreams

I'm a Dixie girl who prays

Some day she'll be a Delta queen

Find a good man,

Who'll raise me and my baby

[Chorus x2]
