Lyrics
Dixie Highway
© 2007, Jennifer Noble, Howie Moscovitch
In 1912, 50 year's peace and all was well
One dream, one day of an interstate highway
Beneath our wheels a nation's history heals
The Southern sun, The Midwest run
The northern skies
We are riding on that Dixie Highway
Ribbon running from the sea
We are driving on that Dixie Highway
Riding on a legacy
Part of You - Part of Me
When I was five, Daddy went north with a bunch of lies
My Ma told me, He was lost as lost could be
Somewhere inside I knew that love cannot not die
It will survive
And I will find him - and we will ride
We'll be riding on that Dixie Highway
Ribbon running from the sea
We'll be driving on that Dixie Highway
Riding on a legacy
Part of him - Part of me
Years down the road - Looking at the state of my soul
I realized any moment I could up and die
I drove my children to Detroit Michigan
To see a man they'd only heard of til then
My children smiled, Felt my heart unwind, My Daddy cried
We are riding on that Dixie Highway
Ribbon running from the sea
We are driving on that Dixie Highway
Building on a legacy
Part of You - Part of Me
Dixie ? Dixie highway
