She had a dead end job at the national bank
And the deadbeat husband who always drank
So when he didn't come home
She had to gentle thing
For the tears in her eyes
So dixie packed up and said her goodbyes
And she went driving so far away
Nobody's gonna find her
Flying just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didn't know
'til she hit the road deep in her soul
She's got the fire and the fight of
The gypsy ain't nothing stronger than the heart of
Dixie
The heart of dixie
It's a funny thing when your world falls down
It's got a way of showing you what you're all about
Now dixie's got her wheels pointed south
And she ain't never looking back
And nobody knew she was brave like that
And she went driving so far away
Nobody's gonna find her
Flying just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didn't know hit the road deep in her soul
She's got the fire and the fight of
The gypsy ain't nothing stronger than the heart of
Dixie
The heart of dixie
Yeah dixie woke up to the truth one day
Grab your cheap sunglasses and her lipstick case
And she went driving so far away
Nobody's gonna find her
Flying just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didn't know hit the road deep in her soul
She's got the fire and the fight of
The gypsy ain't nothing stronger
Than the heart of dixie
The heart of dixie
The heart of dixie
