He said way down yonder in the land of cotton Old times there ain't near as rotten as they are On this damned old L.A. street. Then he drew a dying breath And laid his head against my chest. Please. Lord, take his soul back home to Dixie. I sang Dixie as he died. The people just walked on by as I cried. The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride, So I sang Dixie as he died. He said, "Listen to me, Son, while you still can. Run back home to that Southern land. Don't you see what life here has done to me?" Then he closed those old gray eyes And fell limp against my side. No more pain, now he's safe back home in Dixie. I sang Dixie as he died. The people just walked on by as I cried. The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride, So I sang Dixie as he died.

I get it even if no one else does. To many people from north of the Mason Dixon line Dixie represents a racist , repressive society. But Most of us born and raised in Dixie made peace with those issues a long time ago. To us it’s home, where we spent summers at some swimming hole, or winters following a dam beagle down some ditch in Freezing weather for a shot at a rabbit that was way smarter than the dog and us as well. During a protracted battle for Petersburg Va. General Lee remarked that to the Union Army Petersburg was just a strategic town that they needed to take. But to Robert E. Lee it was the town where he had met , courted , and married his wife. Dixie means different things to different people. You needn’t apologize again.

+Shirley D - This is a beautiful song. Unfortunately the concept of "Dixie" has a lot of negative connotations, and rightly so. I'm from "The South", and I'll tell you right now the concept of Dixie is obsolete and just plain foolish. But many in the deep south need to cling to something. They have very little in the way of education, jobs, etc. So I understand why they hang onto their "Rebel Pride" - but I still believe it's glorifying something that died off long ago. And it won't be coming back. Whenever I hear someone say "the South will rise again" - it just makes my skin crawl. Almost all the wealth of the Old South was concentrated in the hands of a relative few, and it was 90% based on slave labor. Is that anything to be proud of? I don't think so.

Marcus, you hit the nail right on the head. Dwight is a true country artist....great vocalist and musician! And as Trina says, what passes as country is mediocre watered down pop country.

cliff hooper, "... I hate ... the two party system." It is ugly, but when a country eliminates all but a single party it's even worse for the citizens, though much tidier for tyrants. (e.g., Communist China, North Korea, Cuba, ...) Except for the part where transfer of power requires an assassination rather than an election, that is. Probably why tyrants are so relentless in suppressing all dissent.

I have followed Dwight's career since the 80s. He was one of the last old school musicians to emerge in Nashville. Country music has since become overproduced. It is more about social media and how attractive the musician is than their talent. Many of these older musicians can no longer get airplay on radio. I don't even know if Dwight has been inducted yet into the Grand Ole Opry. Anyways, he is still a heavy hitter in my books. Writes his own lyrics and music too.

He, also, had to produce and distribute his debut album. The record companies wouldn't take him on. He proved them, powerfully, wrong.
@brkfstfd Жыл бұрын
He emerged out of Los Angeles and the Bakersfield Sound, rock/rockabilly/honky-tonk influences. Pretty sure all of his albums were recorded at Capital Studio under the Reprise Label (Warner Brothers). That’s in Hollywood. Very much not a Nashville Sound, Countrypolitan, Pop Country artist. By the early 90s he did have a little neoclassical going on though.

Thank you for not letting the reference to Dixie deter you from recognizing this song is about a person dying in a lonely place so far from "home". We have to stop letting things like where we are from etc. divide us. Greif and struggle are human conditions, not relegated to any race or region.
