Lyrics:

She had a dead-end job at the national bank
And a deadbeat husband who always drank
So when he didnt come home he had the gin to thank
For the tears in her eyes
So Dixie packed up and said her goodbyes

And she went driving so far away nobodys gonna find her
Flyin just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didnt know til she hit the road, deep in her soul
Shes got the fire and the fight of the Gypsy
Aint nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
The heart of Dixie

Its a funny thing when your world falls down
Its got a way of showing you what youre all about
Now Dixies got her wheels pointed south
She aint never looking back
And nobody knew she must leave like that

And she went driving so far away nobodys gonna find her
Flyin just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didnt know til she hit the road, deep in her soul
Shes got the fire and the fight of the Gypsy
Aint nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
The heart of Dixie

Yeah Dixie woke up to the truth one day
Grabbed her cheap sun glasses and a lipstick case

And she went driving so far away nobodys gonna find her
Flyin just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didnt know til she hit the road, deep in her soul
Shes got the fire and the fight of the Gypsy
Aint nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
The heart of Dixie
