Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Pine  trees grow  so tall in the bright  sunshine
 A young boy steals  his daddy's fishin'  line
An  alligator lays  on the banks of a riverbed
 And if you didn't know  any better
 You'd swear  he's dead
 Now these are a few  things I'm in love  with
 A small  part of the reason  I go back
 To Carolina  Mississsippi Florida  gorgeous Georgia
 Now if you think  I'm happy down there
 You're on the right track
 And you ain't  just whistlin Dixie
 You ain't  just slappin your knee
 I'm a grandson  of the Southland
 An heir  to the Confederacy
 You ain't  just whistlin Dixie
 ?Cause the cattle  call's callin' me home
 So put  me down there where I wanna  be
Plant  my feet with Robert  E. Lee
Bury  my bones under a cypress  tree
 And never let me roam
Cotton  balls gleam and the cow  gives cream for the baby's  sake
Pa  comes in full of gin  and he's mean as a rattlesnake
 And if the well  runs dry and we cry  and cuss the garden  hose
Mama  draws a bucket full of creek  water just to wash  our clothes
 (Chorus)
