You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame
You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame
You've got those banjoes strumming
And plunking out a tune to beat the band
The whole plantation is humming
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixieland
Yes, and you make the cotton easy to pick, Mame
You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame
You make the old magnolia tree
Blossom at the mention of your name
You made us feel alive again
And giving us the drive again
To make the South revive again, Mame
Ooh, Mame
Ooh, Mame
You've got those banjoes strumming
And plunking out a tune to beat the band
Yes, the whole plantation is humming
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixieland
You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame
You give my old mint julep a kick, kick, kick, Mame
You're special, fascinational
Groove do be inspirational
We think you're just sensational, Mame
