Way up yonder up there behind them pearly gates is there a place lord

I wonder where a good old boy can stay

Cause I love the life I live down in the south land

There ain't nothing like being below the old mason line

And if heaven ain't a lot like dixie lord you know I still wanna go

I just hope you got a dirt road that leads to a fishing hole

And don't mind me bringing my pole

I don't claim to be no saint just doing my best to

Get a little better every day and when they asked me frank won't

You tell me why do you drink cause I know how to fly away

And I love the life I live down in the south land there ain't nothing

Like being below the old mason line and if heaven ain't a lot

Like dixie lord you know I still wanna go

I just hope you got a dirt road

That leads to a fishing hole and don't mind me bringing my pole

Lord I hope I live me a long time until I'm old and grey

And when I face my final hour this is what I'm gonna say

Well I sure did love my life down in the south land

There was nothing like being below this old mason line

And if heaven ain't a lot like dixie lord you know

I still wanna go I just hope you got a dirt road

That leads to a fishing hole and don't mind me bringing my pole

I just hope you got a dirt road that leads to a fishing hole

And don't mind me bringing my pole
