Dixie Highway

Music and Lyrics by Carole and Ron Ciancioso

There’s a road that stretches for mile on end
From, down in miami up to michigan
Where the girls’ll wave ya down
In that desperate part of town
If you decide that’s the road to take
The devil’s hand is the one you’ll shake
You‘ll know you went the wrong way
When you’re drivin’ down dixie hwy.
And so they go, where roses don’t grow
Where mama told you not to go
Down dixie hwy
Down dixie hwy
Alone, she walks down the lonesome tracks
To the crying sound of the old man’s sax
The night’s just started
For all the broken hearted
They all have dreams of their pot of gold
Unaware they’d have to sell their soul
They’ll have to learn the hard way
Livin’ life on dixie highway
And so they go, where roses don’t grow
Where mama told you not to go
Down dixie hwy
Down dixie hwy
Solo

Bridge

Will she ever find her way back home
The small town girl she used to be
The only life that she’s ever known
Will these streets ever set her free
No one wins at the game she plays
Hoping she can find a way off
Dixie hwy
Dixie hwy
Off dixie hwy
Off dixie hwy
Off dixie hwy
Off dixie hwy
