Mame |
| You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame |
| You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame |
| You’ve got that banjoes strummin' |
| And plunkin' out a tune to beat the band |
| The whole plantation’s hummin' |
| Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land |
| You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame |
| You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame |
| Who ever thought a Yankee would put |
| A little Dixie mouse to shame |
| You’ve made us feel alive again |
| You’ve given us the drive again |
| To make the South revive again, Mame |
| Beauregard Burnside: |
| You’ve brought the cake-walk back into style, Mame |
| You make the weepin' willow tree smile, Mame |
| Your skin is Dixie satin |
| There’s rebel in your manner and your speech |
| You may be from Manhattan |
| But Georgia never had a sweeter peach |
| You make our black-eyed peas and our grits, Mame |
| Seem like the bill of fare at the Ritz, Mame |
| You came, you saw, you conquered |
| And absolutely nothing is the same |
| You’re special fascination’ll prove to be |
| Inspirational |
| We think you’re just sensational, Mame |
| Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land |
| Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land |
| You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame |
| You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame |
| You’ve got that banjoes strummin' |
| And plunkin' out a tune to beat the band |
| The whole plantation’s hummin' |
| Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land |
| You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame |
| You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame |
| Who ever thought a Yankee would put |
| A little Dixie mouse to shame |
| You’ve made us feel alive again |
| You’ve given us the drive again |
| To make the South revive again, Mame |
| Mame! |
| Mame! |
| Mame! |
| Mame! |
