Headed Back To Dixieland

lyrics

I'm headed back to Dixieland
Chattanooga town or Birmingham
Mississippi or Alabama
Maybe down to Louisiana
I've been thinking about Baton Rouge
Don't know exactly where I'm headed to
Seems all I ever do is ramble around
I ain't ever gonna settle down

Well they said north, son, that's where you go
But I never got used to the ice and snow
I wouldn't have gone if I would have known
I should have known better

But my momma always said, son, you better settle down
You never get nowhere by rambling 'round
But I never did care much for that little town
I should have known better

Chorus

Well they said Detroit, that's where you go
There's money and work for any old fool
so I spent some time standing on that row
I should have known better

Then there was Pittsburgh, in that steel mill
Hauling them rails up and down that hill
If I hadn't left, I'd be there still
I should have known better

Chorus
