Guess I got what I deserved
Kept you waiting there
Too long my love
All that time without a word
Didn't know you'd think
That I'd forget
Or I'd regret
The special love I had for you
My baby blue
All the days became so long
Did you really think
I'd do you wrong?
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize that I would know
I would show
The special love I have for you
My baby blue
What can I do?
What can I say?
"Cept I want you by my side
How can I show you
Show me the way
Times you know
The times I've tried
Guess that's all I have to say
"Cept the feelin' just grows stronger
Everyday
Just one thing before I go
Take good care baby
Let me know
Let it grow
The special love you have for me
My dixie dear
