The Rowdy Prairie Dogs
Dixie Highway (Live)
Lyrics
There's a road leading south out of the windy city
He always dreamed it would take him away
And there's a fire in the heart of the woman he left behind
Said I'll be back for you someday
I'll be back to take you down south
To take you down the Dixie Highway.

Wherever I go you follow
Wherever I go I will be there for you
Wherever the sun sets tomorrow
Wherever I go I will always love you.

He left his old guitar in the corner of her living room
Some nights she swears she can hear him play
There's a song in his heart that he's singing every night
Singing I'll be back for you someday
I'll be back to take you down south
To take you down the Dixie Highway.

Wherever I go you follow
Wherever I go I will be there for you
Wherever the sun sets tomorrow
Wherever I go I will always love you.

He calls her late at night on the telephone
She's says tell me, when you coming for me
Well there's a fire in his heart and it's burning
Burning so bright
You can see it in his eyes as he's driving away
He's going to take her down south
To take her down the Dixie Highway.

Wherever I go you follow
Wherever I go I will be there for you
Wherever the sun sets tomorrow
Wherever I go I will always love you.
