Jeff;s #6

Memphis, Tennessee, we're here to see the king! (If that didn't give it away, I don't know what will!) This is a song arranged by country songwriter Mickey Newbury and made popular by this artist.  Released as a single in 1972...

Jeff's number 6 song is...
Elvis Presley ~ An American Trilogy  


"Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton

Old things they are not forgotten

Look away, look away, look away dixieland
Oh I wish I was in dixie, away, away
In dixieland I take my stand to live and die in dixie
Cause dixieland, that's where I was born
Early lord one frosty morning
Look away, look away, look away dixieland

Glory, glory hallelujah

Glory, glory hallelujah

Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on

So hush little baby

Don't you cry

You know your daddys bound to die
But all my trials, lord will soon be over"
