You've heard about the New York girls, with all their dare and dash,
And of the Frisky girls from Frisco you've been told,
The fame of Frances's daughters has been wafted o'er the waters,
And the English girls are worth their weight in gold,
to ramble wi' a Scottish lass is just being in heaven,
Some love an Irish colleen on their knee,
But you just give me a Dixie Girl an they can have the rest.
For the Dixie Girls are good enough for me.

Chorus

Dixie Girls are good enough for me,
They are sweeter than the cheeries on the tree,
They are just the Dandy Dears,
I've been cuddlin' them for years,
Oh-o- the Dixie Girls are good enough for me.
Oh for the  (repeat chorus)

Verse 2

I know there's lots of fellows very fond of foreign blood,
And rave about the Asiatic charms,
some think there's nothing finer than to hug a girl from China
Or hold an Abyssinian in their arms,
some chaps are only happy when they're Jinkin' with a Jappy,
Or dangling a Spaniard on their knee,
Well they can have the blooming lot, all the rest can go to pot,
If not from Dixie they're no good for me.

Chorus (repeat)

Verse 3

Now I have got a Dixie Girl, she is my very own,
She simply is the sunlight of my life,
And one night in the moonlight as we wandered all alone,
She promised me that she would be my wife,
Behind her Daddy's chicken house last night at ten to ten,
I never thought such happiness could be,
When she said she would be mine, the atmosphere became devine,
then I fixed the date for June the twenty three.

Chorus (repeat)
