Dixie Wailin Chords & Lyrics - Misc Television - Fraggle Rock

[Dm]When my time to go is here,
Call my [G]friends to gather near.
Tell the [Dm]doctor and the preacher that I'm f[A]ailing.

[Dm]But forget about your black,
'Cause I'm [G]planning to come back.
Play some [Bb]honky-tonkin' grief and Dixie [Dm]wailing.

[CHORUS]

[Bb]Pick me up and lay me down,
And [Dm]spread the news all over town,
And [A]tell 'em all to come or they'll be [Dm]sorry.
[Bb]Pick me up and shake me twice.
I'm [Dm]coming back from paradise.
[A]This poor boy is here to live in [Dm]glory.

When it's time to say good-bye,
All my friends will sit and cry,
And they'll watch the coffin rockin' round and squirmin'.

Then they'll raise a mighty shout,
When my bones come marching out.
And I praise myself and preach the final sermon.

[CHORUS]

When the Earth begins to quake,
From the shaking at my wake,
I'll be here and making music like a light wine [could be life line] .

'Till the honky-tonkin' grief,
Gives the Angels sweet relief,
'Cause they know that Dixie wail is still surviving.

[CHORUS 2X]
