Archivum Musicum
Description: "Dixie", also known as "Dixie's Land", "I Wish I Was in Dixie", and other titles, is a song about the Southern United States first made in 1859. It is one of the most distinctively Southern musical products of the 19th century. It was not a folk song at its creation, but it has since entered the American folk vernacular. The song likely cemented the word "Dixie" in the American vocabulary as a nickname for the Southern U.S.
"Dixie" originated in the minstrel shows of the 1850s and quickly became popular throughout the United States. During the American Civil War, it was adopted as a de facto national anthem of the Confederacy, along with "The Bonnie Blue Flag" and "God Save the South". New versions appeared at this time that more explicitly tied the song to the events of the Civil War.
The song was a favorite of President Abraham Lincoln and he had it played at some of his political rallies and at the announcement of General Robert E. Lee's surrender. Early recordings of the song include band versions by Issler's Orchestra, Gilmore's Band and the Edison Grand Concert Band and a vocal version by George J. Gaskin.
LYRICS:
I wish I was in the land of cotton,
Old times there are not forgotten;
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
In Dixie's Land where I was born in,
Early on one frosty morning,
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
[CHORUS]
Then I wish I was in Dixie! Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie's Land I'll take my stand, to live and die in Dixie!
Away! Away! Away down South in Dixie!
Away! Away! Away down South in Dixie!
Old Missus married "Will the Weaver".
William was a gay deceiver!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
But when he put his arm around her,
Smiled as fierce as a forty-pounder!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
[CHORUS]
His face was sharp as a butcher's cleaver;
But that did not seem to grieve her!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
Old Missus acted the foolish part
And died for a man that broke her heart!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
[CHORUS]
Now here's a health to the next old missus
And all the gals that want to kiss us!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
But if you want to drive away sorrow,
Come and hear this song tomorrow!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
[CHORUS]
There's buckwheat cakes and Injin batter,
Makes you fat or a little fatter!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
Then hoe it down and scratch your gravel,
To Dixie's Land I'm bound to travel!
Look away! Look away! Look away, Dixie's Land!
[CHORUS]

The Confederacy was a state founded to protect the institution of slavery in the US. I would quote my sources but that's too long for KZbin to let me post.

[@economicallyunviablekitten]

@@player17wastaken as the saying goes, “State rights for what?”

[@DoubleJ1223]

@@economicallyunviablekitten slavery was only brought up as a main point after Lincoln abolished it in the south, the war itself was mainly for cultural, economic, and political reasons and if the union would’ve brought industrialization down to the south, and only after it was successful, abolished slavery then there wouldn’t have been a civil war over slavery, but they didn’t want to because that would lead to the south being able to supply itself if a civil war were to ever happen. Now for state rights reasons many people believe that it should be up to the state for every decision and that is why they fought, the south lost and we see affects of it in the America we live in.

@@DoubleJ1223 "The people of the State of South Carolina, in Convention assembled, on the 26th day of April, A.D., 1852, declared that the frequent violations of the Constitution of the United States, by the Federal Government, and its encroachments upon the reserved rights of the States, fully justified this State in then withdrawing from the Federal Union; but in deference to the opinions and wishes of the other slaveholding States, she forbore at that time to exercise this right. Since that time, these encroachments have continued to increase, and further forbearance ceases to be a virtue... "We assert that fourteen of the States have deliberately refused, for years past, to fulfill their constitutional obligations, and we refer to their own Statutes for the proof. "The Constitution of the United States, in its fourth Article, provides as follows: 'No person held to service or labor in one State, under the laws thereof, escaping into another, shall, in consequence of any law or regulation therein, be discharged from such service or labor, but shall be delivered up, on claim of the party to whom such service or labor may be due.'" "The General Government, as the common agent, passed laws to carry into effect these stipulations of the States. For many years these laws were executed. But an increasing hostility on the part of the non-slaveholding States to the institution of slavery, has led to a disregard of their obligations, and the laws of the General Government have ceased to effect the objects of the Constitution. The States of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa, have enacted laws which either nullify the Acts of Congress or render useless any attempt to execute them. In many of these States the fugitive is discharged from service or labor claimed, and in none of them has the State Government complied with the stipulation made in the Constitution. The State of New Jersey, at an early day, passed a law in conformity with her constitutional obligation; but the current of anti-slavery feeling has led her more recently to enact laws which render inoperative the remedies provided by her own law and by the laws of Congress. In the State of New York even the right of transit for a slave has been denied by her tribunals; and the States of Ohio and Iowa have refused to surrender to justice fugitives charged with murder, and with inciting servile insurrection in the State of Virginia. Thus the constituted compact has been deliberately broken and disregarded by the non-slaveholding States, and the consequence follows that South Carolina is released from her obligation." - S. Carolina Secession Declaration

I was in Elementary School in Miami, Fl in the mid 60s and I remember the music teacher used to have us sing this song along with other "Americana songs" of the Civil war era. The class at the time was mostly Cuban refugees whose parents had fled Castro's Cuba. At the time the song did not have the notoriety it would have, that came later during the Black Power activists of the late 60s.

[@acidbubblebath77]

Meh, if we want to get technical here, then you should remove West Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri from that map of "Dixieland." Missouri and Kentucky never seceded from the union even if both states were not entirely loyal to the Union. Culturally speaking, northern and central Missouri is much different from the southernmost counties, especially the Ozark region. Kentucky is culturally a southern state but was not officially part of the confederacy. The western counties of Virginia wanted to remain loyal to the union and hence they seceded from Virginia to form West Virginia.

Missouri was technically the 12th Confederate State. She had attempted to stay neutral, but Federal forces occupied the capital, so the Missourian government under Claiborne F. Jackson officially declared their secession and joined the Confederacy.
