Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down by the bayou, where the moss hangs low,
Outlaws gather 'neath the moon's soft glow.
Stoking fires, blazing strong and bright,
Their rebel spirits dance into the night.
[Chorus]
In the heart of Dixie, where the wild winds blow,
Outlaws gather, letting freedom flow.
Down by the bayou, where the spirits soar,
We'll keep on rocking, forevermore.
[Verse 2]
With a rebel yell and a whiskey toast,
They roam the swamps, they ain't ones to boast.
Living free, they defy all chains,
In their veins, runs the blood of rebels' reigns.
[Chorus]
In the heart of Dixie, where the wild winds blow,
Outlaws gather, letting freedom flow.
Down by the bayou, where the spirits soar,
We'll keep on rocking, forevermore.
[Instrumental continuation]
[Bridge]
Beneath the stars, where the creek waters flow,
Fiddles wail and guitars twang, nice and low.
Sippin' on shine, under the magnolia trees,
In the heart of the bayou, we're wild and free.
With grit in our teeth and dirt on our hands,
We'll dance to the rhythm of the Southern lands.
Through thicket and thorn, we'll find our way,
Outlaws by nature, we'll never sway.
[Pre-chorus]
Through the smoke and the haze, we find our groove,
Southern rebels, we got nothing to prove.
With hearts ablaze and spirits bright,
We'll keep on rocking into the night.
[Chorus]
In the heart of Dixie, where the wild winds blow,
Outlaws gather, letting freedom flow.
Down by the bayou, where the spirits soar,
We'll keep on rocking, forevermore.
[Chorus]
In the heart of Dixie, where the wild winds blow,
Outlaws gather, letting freedom flow.
Down by the bayou, where the spirits soar,
We'll keep on rocking, forevermore.
[Outro]
So here's to the bayou, our sacred ground,
Where outlaw spirits forever abound.
With the fire still burning, we bid adieu,
But that Southern rock spirit will be sittin' there waiting for you.
[Slow banjo instrumental fade]
[End]
