"Airplane Fell Down In Dixie" lyrics

"Airplane Fell Down In Dixie"

An airplane fell down in Dixie lord how the people cried
An airplane fell down in Dixie, lord how the people cried
20 people was damaged bad, 6 crossed over to the other side

When a mama lose a young'n, ain't no sadder loss
When a mama lose a young'n, ain't no sadder loss
Was baptized in the name of Jesus, lay'em neath a Southern Cross

I stood on the ground in England, and heard a hard southern reign
Stood on the ground in England ...heard a hard southern rain
Got a taste of bourbon whiskey and Mr. JJ Cales' cocaine

Now nobody lives forever, some things never die
Nobody lives forever some things never die
Like way down in the land of cotton, they tell me a free bird will always fly
