"Angel In Dixie" lyrics

I saw an angel in Dixie
In Heaven the other night
No my way to New Orleans
Can't get her off my mind
There's many miles of highway
Between me and the county line
Thinking about my angel of Dixie
Tell me where is she tonight

She was gone out of sight
But she's on my mind
Well, I've searched the world over
She might be the one to share my life
Or honey just help me through the night
We rolled into Texas
I was feeling mighty good
When I saw this angel
Looking like she surely could
Standing there with long blond hair
And the blue sky in her eyes
I can't remember the last time I forgot something
I forgot my own name that night

She was gone out of sight
But she's on my mind
Well, I've searched the world high and low
And, darling, I've got to say
Still think about you every day
Man we had a big ole time
Everything was right
Search the crowd still missing
Lord my angel of the night
I turned to go and there she was
I said, "Darling, you made my day."
She smiled and brought me to my knees
Said thanks and walked away

She was gone out of sight
But she's on my mind
Well, I've searched the world over
She might be the one to share my life
Or honey just help me through the night
'Cause I have waited all my life
Yea I have waited all my life
For my angel in Dixie
