Lyrics
Gather round me people, got a song to sing 'Bout that sweet magnolia time Black-eyed Susan made some catfish stew And papa brought some homemade wine All the southern children like to rock'n roll The TV mamas tell you why They got it on the boat from Africa It's a Dixie lullaby Blind Willie Thyme he had a dime shoe shine Stand down on Beale Street And Willie would stop and say hello To all the shoes he'd meet "Why are you so happy?" said the clean white buck "You got no reason to be happy Mr. Thyme" But Willie just smiled and Willie popped his rag And sang a Dixie lullaby Now you heard the story of my Southern home Where the honeysuckle vines Any time you think that you might come yourself You ought to keep this thought in mind
