[Verse 1]
      E
I'm a'headin' back to Dixie,

           A               E
That's the place I long to be,

          A                    E
Where the cotton grows and the Suwanee flows,

       F#                 B7
That's home sweet home to me,

           E
Where they meet you and they greet you,

         A
With the sweetest how you are,

     E
Well shut my mouth, I'm a'headin' south,

       B7          E
On the Dixie Cannonball
[Chorus]
       E
On the Dixie Cannonball

       A
On the Dixie Cannonball,

     E
Just listen to the whistle

      F#                 B7
It'll thrill you one and all

      E
And I know there's some one waitin'

         A
With the sweetest how you are,

     E
Well shut my mouth, I'm a'headin' south,

       B7          E
On the Dixie Cannonball
[Verse 2]
       E
When I cross them smokey mountains

        A              E
I'll be countin' every mile,

         A                      E
When the whistle blows, I'll be on my toes,

         F#               B7
And I'll shuffle down the aisle,

      E
And I know I'll not be lonesome,

       A
When I see them treetops tall,

      E
I'm a-comin' through on the big choo-choo

       B7          E
On the Dixie Cannonball
[Chorus]
       E
On the Dixie Cannonball

       A
On the Dixie Cannonball,

     E
Just listen to the whistle

      F#                 B7
It'll thrill you one and all

      E
And I know there's some one waitin'

         A
With the sweetest how you are,

     E
Well shut my mouth, I'm a'headin' south,

       B7          E
On the Dixie Cannonball
[Verse 3]
         E
Yes, I'm goin' back to Dixie,

           A               E
That's the place I long to be,

          A                    E
Where the cotton grows and the Suwanee flows,

       F#                 B7
That's home sweet home to me,

           E
Where they meet you and they greet you,

         A
With the sweetest how you are,

     E
Well shut my mouth, I'm a'headin' south,

       B7          E
On the Dixie Cannonball
[Chorus]
       E
On the Dixie Cannonball

       A
On the Dixie Cannonball,

     E
Just listen to the whistle

      F#                 B7
It'll thrill you one and all

And I know there's some one waitin'

         A
With the sweetest how you are,

     E
Well shut my mouth, I'm a'headin' south,

       B7          E
