	Version 1:



O, I wish I was in the land of cotton

Old times there are not forgotten

Look away! Look away!

Look away! Dixie Land.



In Dixie Land where I was born in

Early on one frosty mornin'

Look away! Look away!

Look away! Dixie Land.



Chorus:

O, I wish I was in Dixie!

Hooray! Hooray!

In Dixie Land I'll take my stand

To live and die in Dixie

Away, away,

Away down south in Dixie!



Old Missus marry Will, the weaver,

William was a gay deceiver

Look away! Look away!

Look away! Dixie Land.



But when he put his arm around her

He smiled as fierce as a forty pounder

Look away! Look away!

Look away! Dixie Land.



Chorus:

O, I wish I was in Dixie!

Hooray! Hooray!

In Dixie Land I'll take my stand

To live and die in Dixie

Away, away,

Away down south in Dixie!



His face was sharp as a butcher's cleaver

But that did not seem to grieve her

Look away! Look away!

Look away! Dixie Land.

Old Missus acted the foolish part

And died for a man that broke her heart

Look away! Look away!

Look away! Dixie Land.



Chorus:

O, I wish I was in Dixie!

Hooray! Hooray!

In Dixie Land I'll take my stand

To live and die in Dixie

Away, away,

Away down south in Dixie!



Check out this other version attributed to General Albert Pike, CSA:



Southrons, hear your country call you,

Up, lest worse than death befall you!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Lo! all the beacon-fires are lighted,--

Let all hearts be now united!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Advance the flag of Dixie! Hurrah! Hurrah!

In Dixie's land we take our stand, and live or die for Dixie!

To arms! To arms! And conquer peace for Dixie!

To arms! To arms! And conquer peace for Dixie



Hear the Northern thunders mutter!

Northern flags in South winds flutter!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Send them back your fierce defiance!

Stamp upon the cursed alliance!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus:

Fear no danger! Shun no labor!

Lift up rifle, pike, and saber!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Shoulder pressing close to shoulder,

Let the odds make each heart bolder!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus



How the South's great heart rejoices

At your cannon's ringing voices!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

For faith betrayed and pledges broken,

Wrongs inflicted, insults spoken,

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus



Strong as lions, swift as eagles,

Back to their kennels hunt these beagles!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Cut the unequal bonds asunder!

Let them hence each other plunder!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus



Swear upon your country's altar

Never to submit or falter--

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Till the spoilers are defeated,

Till the Lord's work is completed!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus



Halt not till our Federation

Secures among earth's powers its station!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Then at peace and crowned with glory,

Hear your children tell the story!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus



If the loved ones weep in sadness,

Victory soon shall bring them gladness--

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!

Exultant pride soon vanish sorrow;

Smiles chase tears away to-morrow!

To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!



Chorus

[From the Richmond Dispatch, March 19, 1893.]

Dan Emmett its Author and New York the Place of Its Production.



I wish I was in the land of cotton,

old times there are not forgotten,

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land.

In Dixie land where I was born in, early on a frosty mornin',

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land.



Chorus:

Then I wish I was in Dixie, hooray! Hooray!

In Dixie 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 marry Will de Weaber, Will-yum was a gay deceaber,

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land.

But when he put his arm around her,

smiled as fierce as a forty pounder.

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land. (Chorus)



Dars buckwheat cakes an' ingen batter, makes you fat or a little fatter,

Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land.

Den hoe it down and scratch your grabble to Dixie's land

I'm bound to travel,

Look away, look away, look away Dixie land. (Chorus)
