Guess I got what I deserve
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 have for you
My baby blue

All the days became so long
Did you really think, that I'd do you wrong
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize that I would know
That I would show

The special love I have for you
My baby blue

What can I do, what can I say
Except that I want you by my side
How can I show you, show me a way
Don't you know I tried and I tried

Guess that's all I have to say
Except the feeling just gets stronger everyday
Just one thing before I go
Take good care baby, let it grow, let it show
The special love you have for me, my Dixie dear
