All the stations up here don't sign off with Dixie,
The way they did in sweet home Alabam,
And the people here don't sip Jack Daniels whiskey,
The way they do in that Tennessee mountain land.
I've always heard lots about the big apple,
So I thought I'd come up here and see,
But all I've seen so far is one big hassle,
Wish I was camped out on the Okachovee.
If this is the promised land,
I've had all I can stand,
And I'm headed back below that Dixie line
Well I just don't fit in,
And I'll never come back again,
I'm busted here with Dixie on my mind,
Oh, I'm stuck up here and I got Dixie on my mind.
These people never smile or say a word,
They're all too busy tryin' to make an extra dime,
Oh I'd love to haul 'em all down around Spartanburg,
And show 'em how to raise hell in Carolina.
Oh, the things you know that I miss most of all,
Is the freedom of the rivers and the pines,
They don't do much huntin' and fishin' up here ya know,
But I have met a few squirrels and one porcupine.
If this is the promised land,
I've had all I can stand,
Wish I was down in Houston town tonight,
Well I just don't fit in,
And I'll never come back again,
I'm busted here with Dixie on my mind,
Oh, I'm stuck up here and I got Dixie on my mind.

This is a great song, this has to be one of my favorite Hank Songs of all the time, this really represents the pride of the great South. Dixie on My Mind, to me, is up there with the other Hank greats like Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound, and Family Tradition. Always remember.. Heritage not Hate. Thats what this is all about.
