"Down Below The Mason Dixon Line" Words and music By Gary C. Thompson
Verse:
Well I packed my bags
I'm going away
I'm leavin' this town
So far away
I'm goin' down where
There isn't any snow__
When I Hop aboard
That south bound train
The folks here north
Won't see me again
When I get to the place
I want to go__
Oh gosh and golly gee
There's just one place for me
Chorus:
Down below the Mason Dixon Line
The sun will shine
around me
All of the time
I can smell that Honeysuckle vine
I hear those banjos ringin'
Folks all singin
You don't know what joy they're bringing
Hear that south land calling
Oh gee it's calling me
To Alabama, Caroline or sunny Tennesee
Why don't you
Carry me back to ol' Virginny
Down Below The Mason Dixon Line__
(repeat Chorus)
