Moon Over Dixie by Duke Ellington Lyrics

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Moon over Dixie, please send your light
Down on Louisiana, and tell Louisiana that I'm blue tonight
Moon over Dixie, keep shining bright
Look for Louisiana, you'll know Louisiana by those fields of white

[Bridge]
There's a cabin in the cotton that never will be forgotten
Where I'd give the world to be once more
You might think you're in Heaven but you haven't been in Heaven
'Til you creep inside that cabin door

[Verse 2]
Oh, moon over Dixie, it don't seem right
You're in Louisiana, I miss Louisiana
That's why I'm so blue tonight

[Instrumental]
