Key: Bb
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
When the band is playing music grand to the sweetest girl I ever knew
I am saving up my money to buy a little cabin home for two
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
I got a letter from the sunny south, from my girl in Tennessee
She said she loved me as she always did and was waiting there for me
I answered back her letter, though I am far away
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to stay
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
When the band is playing music grand to the sweetest girl I ever knew
I am saving up my money to buy a little cabin home for two
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
I left my honey at the railroad track, I said honey wait for me
I'm going to make a lot of money up north then it's me for old Tennessee
I am saving up my money to buy a little cabin home for two
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
When the band is playing music grand to the sweetest girl I ever knew
I am saving up my money to buy a little cabin home for two
When the roses bloom in Dixieland I am coming home to you
