Guess I got what I deserved 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 had for you My baby blue
All the days became so long Did you really think I'd do you wrong? Dixie, when I let you go Thought you'd realize that I would know I would show The special love I have for you My baby blue
What can I do? What can I say? 'Cept I want you by my side How can I show you? Show me the way Don't you know The times I've tried?
Guess that's all I have to say 'Cept the feelin' just grows stronger Everyday Just one thing before I go Take good care, baby Let me know Let it grow The special love you have for me My Dixie dear
