Southern Dixie Flyer - Marty Robbins[00:00:01]

At the station house one day[00:00:07]

Was a lady old and gray[00:00:11]

I could tell her heart was feeling sad and low[00:00:14]

With a teardrop in her eye[00:00:21]

She was trying not to cry[00:00:25]

I determined then her story I would know[00:00:28]

I ventured a word[00:00:35]

Then a sad sad tale I heard[00:00:38]

Of a mother who had lost her only child[00:00:42]

Yes they've taken her away[00:00:49]

These words I heard her say[00:00:52]

And they're travelling on that Southern Dixie Flyer[00:00:56]

She was only sweet sixteen[00:01:03]

And the only joy I've seen[00:01:06]

What God has given now he takes away[00:01:10]

She'll be taken home again[00:01:17]

On that southbound railroad train[00:01:20]

To be laid there with her daddy in the grave[00:01:24]

I've no money of my own[00:01:31]

I can't even take her home[00:01:34]

But I want to be there with my heart's desire[00:01:37]

But then she could say no more[00:01:45]

As the echo drifted o'er[00:01:48]

Was the whistle of that Southern Dixie Flyer[00:01:51]

As the train pulled out of sight[00:01:58]

And the day became as night[00:02:02]

Was a scene to bring a tear to any eye[00:02:05]

Just a lady all alone[00:02:12]

Not a thing to call her own[00:02:16]

But some memories from a better day gone by[00:02:19]

I knew right away[00:02:26]

There was nothing I could say[00:02:30]

To soothe her heart[00:02:33]

Or dry those tear dimmed eyes[00:02:36]

So I turned to walk away[00:02:40]

From the lady old and gray[00:02:44]

Whose heart was on that Southern Dixie Flyer[00:02:47]

I've no money of my own[00:02:54]

I can't even take her home[00:02:58]

But I want to be there with my heart's desire[00:03:01]

But then she could say no more[00:03:08]

As the echo drifted o'er[00:03:12]

Was the whistle of that Southern Dixie Flyer[00:03:15]
