Dixie Flyer - Randy Newman[00:00:00]
I was born right here[00:00:30]
November '43[00:00:34]
Dad was a captain in the army[00:00:39]
Fighting the Germans in Sicily[00:00:42]
My poor little mama[00:00:48]
Didn't know a soul in L A [00:00:51]
Went down to the Union Station[00:00:55]
Made our getaway[00:00:58]
Got on the Dixie Flyer[00:01:02]
Bound for New Orleans[00:01:06]
Across the state of Texas[00:01:11]
To the land of dreams[00:01:13]
On the Dixie Flyer[00:01:18]
Bound for New Orleans[00:01:21]
Back to her friends and her family[00:01:26]
In the land of dreams[00:01:28]
Her own mother came down[00:01:34]
To station meet us[00:01:35]
Her dress as black as a crow in a coal mine[00:01:40]
She cried when her little girl got off the train[00:01:47]
Her brothers and her sisters came down from Jackson Mississippi[00:01:54]
In a great green Hudson driven by a Gentile they knew[00:02:01]
Drinkin' rye whiskey from a flask in the backseat[00:02:07]
Tryin' to do like the Gentiles do[00:02:14]
Christ they wanted to be Gentiles too[00:02:17]
Who wouldn't down there wouldn't you [00:02:21]
An American Christian[00:02:25]
Goddamn[00:02:29]
On the Dixie Flyer[00:02:33]
Bound for New Orleans[00:02:36]
Across the state of Texas[00:02:41]
In the land of dreams[00:02:43]
On the Dixie Flyer[00:02:48]
Bound for New Orleans[00:02:51]
Back to her friends and her family[00:02:56]
In the land of dreams[00:02:58]
Back to her friends and her family[00:03:03]
In the land of dreams[00:03:06]
