Outlaws - Lonesome Boy from Dixie Lyrics




There's a peach tree on a hill in northern Georgia
Where a teenage boy sits staring at the ground
Soon he'll leave to join the rebel soldiers
For the Cumberland And Nashville, he is bound

He goes down to ride with the Bedford Forrest Calv'ry
He can shoot a man at a hundred yards or more
But he knows he's just like any other soldier
If they spill his blood, he'll never ride no more

Chorus
Don't you know I'm just a lonesome boy from Dixie?
Help me lord I feel so all alone
Don't you know I'm just a lonesome boy form Dixie
I've gone to war and I just wanna go home

When the battle started, the rebels were outnumbered
They shot his leg with an angry cannonball
The medic came an said we'll all be lucky
If the boy from Dixie makes it home at all

Well there's a peach tree on a hill from northern Georgia
Where a horse stands like a statue made of stone
Flowers bless a grave down in the meadow
Now the lonesome boy from Dixie made it home
