Lyrics:
O, I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times there are not forgotten
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.
In Dixie Land where I was born in
Early on one frosty mornin'
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.
Chorus:
O, I wish I was in Dixie!
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To live and die in Dixie
Away, away,
Away down south in Dixie!
Old Missus marry Will, the weaver,
William was a gay deceiver
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.
But when he put his arm around her
He smiled as fierce as a forty pounder
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.
Chorus:
O, I wish I was in Dixie!
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To live and die in Dixie
Away, away,
Away down south in Dixie!
His face was sharp as a butcher's cleaver
But that did not seem to grieve her
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.
Old Missus acted the foolish part
And died for a man that broke her heart
Look away! Look away!
Look away! Dixie Land.
Chorus:
O, I wish I was in Dixie!
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To live and die in Dixie
Away, away,
Away down south in Dixie!

Fun facts about this song:
1: It was Abraham Lincoln's favorite song, ironically
2: When the very first American doughboys arrived in France in 1917 they were greeted by an English band, who played this song because it was the only American song they knew.
Southerns are the true Americans any how
Interesting! Nice facts!
BLOODY HELL CHAPS THIS SONG IS FIRE 🗣️🔥🔥🔥🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I love the second fact. I hope they all had a laugh
lmao I mean it technically true lol
Fun fact: when the first doughboys arrived in 1917, a british military band played this because it was the most American song they knew
Damn that's unlucky.
Oof
Yankee Doodle would be I would think, but this is a runner up for the southern folks.
When American troops landed in Australia in 1942 an Australian band played Marching Through Georgia. The troops were from Savannah, Georgia.

You don't even have to be a Yank or a Rebel to like this song.
Even Abraham Lincoln liked it. And he's the president of the United States that fought the Confederacy that composed this song.
It's just music that brings you a sense of nostalgia that you never even lived in the first place.
imagine Union lost the war.
would CSA join the WW-1 and WW-2 .... ??
what about Korean and Vietnam war ...
or would there be a 2nd civil war, sometime in 20th century .... ??
Yeah. The deep south needs to still be celebrated, they are a integral part of the US. This song doesnt even talk about the confederacy and the Civil War, is just about the south.
Actually the song was composed by a northern man who loved the south.

He played it at Gettysburg in honor of the confederate soldiers that died
President Lincoln had the US Army band play this song when the war was over. Lincoln always thought it was a great song about America.
People also forget that he also said if he could save the union without freeing a slave he would.

Lincoln loved this song. Regardless of how you feel about the CSA, the Union, and the Civil War, there’s no denying it’s a good tune.
Thats tru
@Boy, Silly well where exactly did you find proof that Lincoln loved this song?
Ashton Godfrin A simple search reveals a multitude of results. This is mostly due to the fact that it’s just cool Civil War trivia. I’ll link an answer from the Lincoln Financial Foundation, a non-profit run by several Lincoln experts from the Allen County Public Library and the Indiana State Museum.

@@boysilly5629 U also realize that it could also be the UNION VERSION that Lincoln liked, right?
Ashton Godfrin While I can see where you’re coming from, most people, including me, believe he is referring to the original Dixie. While I haven’t read anything specifically denying that it was Union Dixie, I’ve yet to read anything that supports the fact that it was. Regardless, the tune is essentially the same, just with different lyrics.

Yep Texas wil prepare civil war I think and this gonna be patriotic song maybe.

Surprised youtube censorship hasn't gotten to this one
Dixieland doesn’t really have any stuff related to slavery in it’s lyrics so even if TH-cam censorship got even worse they still couldn’t really do anythin’ about Dixie. And they probably don’t want to piss off us southerners by censoring every single Dixie music video and lose all of there southern TH-cam viewers who pay for TH-cam premium and shit.
Hopefully they will not... after all, Lincoln loved it.
Wow didnt expect to get some replies from some good ol' boys like myself! But yeah guys we can hype up our guns and pride all we want and the song itself may not be racist or hateful but in the age of big tech censorship, anything that doesnt fit into their cookie cutter leftist propaganda machine will be shut down. Theres plenty of harmless things already censored. Is why in surprised they havent came for this yet.

If you live in Dixie and said this what your favorite song no one would question you. I have sung this song countless times and no one really seems to care. Some even say I know this song better then they do. In fact most Confederate things aren’t looked down upon here in the south. One time when I was a kid I went to a restaurant and I spotted a painting of General Lee and some other confederate generals with the Confederate Battle Flag in the Background. I told my grandpa about it (who we called Boogoloo) and he said, “Did you salute to them?” And I ran up to the painting and saluted to them with my grandma (who we called Boonana) watching me as well. Let me remind you that there were cashiers and other people waiting in line seeing me salute to Confederate paintin’ and guess what? Nothing. And most kids would probably not be even know what your talkin’ about so it wouldn’t really matter if you told a kid that Dixieland was your favorite song.

The reason I love this song is the beginning melody is my dad's old truck horn and as a kid it signaled he was home so I have a good memory of it
That’s the most southern thing i have ever heard lol
Here in New Jersey, around 2000, some Idiot would razz his co-workers while leaving the job, leaning repeatedly on his DIXIE airhorn to prod all in front of him to fly out upon a busy four-lane highway!! It wasn't the song, it was the fact this guy was an Idiot. The song could have been Clair De Lune for all I care!!
I'm black...... AND I LOVE THIS SONG! Now I really wish I was in Dixie you definitely had a badass childhood
I grew up knowing the melody of this song from cartoons and stuff (I think-I have this association with it being the sound of a silly car horn) and though I have a fairly good knowledge of world history I didn’t know what this melody was (perhaps because I’m not American) until quite recently. I had no idea the cultural baggage associated with this song and I would hum the melody sometimes because all I knew is it was catchy. Recently moved into a place (again, I am not in the American south or anywhere near it) where the previous owner was Native American, and the doorbell has this tune. I guess I will have to change it in case others recognize it and become offended. Anyway, haha, just weird I had no idea for most of my life until now. I have a feeling the previous owner of my home didn’t know either, but who knows!
@@oxfordpictionarywhy would you change your doorbell if you like it?
Fear of offending people to the point of not enjoying things you like is ridiculous.
If people are offended by your doorbell to the point that they hate you for it then those people were not your friends.
Letting the perpetually offended rule your life will gain you nothing. Those people will always be offended by something.

''When a band serenaded him in the White House at the end of the Civil War, he asked the musicians to play "Dixie" saying, "I have always thought 'Dixie' one of the best tunes I have ever heard. Our adversaries over the way attempted to appropriate it, but I insisted yesterday that we fairly captured it…I now request the band to favor me with its performance." (April 10, 1865)

“I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.” - Abraham Lincoln, First Inaugural Address, March of 1861
It is not wrong to fight for your home against invaders; and that entity which was founded through rebellion by slave owners like Washington and Jefferson as well as tolerated slavery in the slave states that remained in the Union (Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware) has no standing from which to judge the Confederacy.
This was a time when the United Sates was still referred to as these United States. It was understood as a political union of sovereign states. Many had never even left their home state in their lifetimes. Our ancestors would have never agreed to enter this union if they knew it was a death pact from which they could never leave.
“The State of Massachusetts has threatened, indeed, on four separate occasions to secede from the Union. First, in the debates referred to on the adjustment of the State debts; secondly, on the purchase of Louisiana and its admission into the Union; thirdly, during the war of 1813; and fourthly, on the annexation of Texas, when, we believe, one chamber of her legislature actually passed a vote of secession. On these occasions it was no mere act of excited individuals, but the general voice of the community. Yet this State is now the loudest in denouncing it, when inconvenient to herself; and a bastile is now said to be preparing in the vicinity of Boston, for the incarceration of those as political prisoners, who simply utter the opinions which, when it suited, this very State has so often and so vehemently expressed…
The Constitution was a voluntary act, framed on the principles of free, mutual assent, and common belief in its advantages. To introduce force as a means of maintaining it, would be repugnant to these principles. It would be a commencement on the voluntary system, to be continued under compulsion. Force is an attribute of monarchy; the throne represents and wields the strength of the nation. Each part is subservient to the whole, and none can revolt without foreknowledge of this force to encounter and overthrow. But the basis of a Federal Republic is the reverse of all this. It stands upon consent, which is the abnegation of force. In place of submission of part to the whole, the parties are co-equal. Compulsion is not only inapplicable, but opposed to the principle of the system. And the men of that day were too logical to be unaware of this; they declined to incorporate with the structure they were rearing a principle directly antagonistic to it.
There is another great constitutional authority, the fountain head of American politics - the Declaration of Independence - of which the first clause bears directly on this question:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that amongst these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter, or abolish it.”
These are the constitutional principles for the guidance of every citizen. When the people of Georgia, left in doubt by the silence of the Federal compact on the subject of secession, refer to these to enlighten them, to what conclusion must they come - what hesitation can they feel? They are told that the "pursuit of happiness" is "an inalienable right of man"; they feel that the government over them has become "destructive of this end"; they read that thereupon "it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it." It will, indeed, be said that the people referred to, are the whole people of the whole country, but this is not the fact. That, indeed, may promote the happiness of Georgia, which produces woe in California, at a distance of three thousand five hundred miles. By what arithmetic can the balance of happiness be adjusted between them? Further, the Declaration of Independence did not speak for all the people under the rule it denounced, but for a small portion of them only; nor did it speak for the people of the United States as a single people, but as separate colonies now claiming to be independent, the respective, original States. Clearly, then, this language is adopted by the people of each separate colony now a State, having a form of government over it of which it is to judge, and which, whenever so disposed, it may abolish.
Again, governments are unjust unless their powers are based on the "consent of the governed." Here the same question arises, Who are the governed who are to consent? Are the people of the State of Georgia to refrain from dissenting until they agree with the people of Oregon, more remote than England from Arabia? But this principle also was enunciated, like the last, for the guidance of each separate, distinct community. Upon these principles we can arrive at no other conclusions than these - that according to the Constitutional doctrines of America, whenever a State decides by the vote of a majority of its people, that the government over it has become destructive to the ends of its welfare and happiness, and no longer exists in its consent, such State has a right to abolish that government, so far as it concerns itself, or, in other words, has a right to secede from the Union.” - Excerpt from “The American Union: It’s Effect on National Character and Policy”(1862) by James Spence, an anti-slavery Englishman
If there was a left wing secessionist movement a majority of liberals would probably support it. In a recent poll nearly half of California democrats support their state seceding even with a liberal president in office, one can safely assume that number will rise if a Republican, especially Trump, gets back in office. If a leftist state voted to leave most liberals would consider it legitimate regardless if other states approved of its secession. Any attempt to force them to stay or occupy military installations on their land would be viewed by them as an act of imperialism and a betrayal to the US’s supposed democratic values. And they would be correct.
A union that claims to rest on the democratic will of the people cannot legitimately force them to stay when they have democratically elected to leave that union. After the Civil War any claim that the US is a voluntary union that rules through the consent of the people is utterly hollow.
BONUS:
“In front of every farm-house would be a large assemblage of whites and blacks, of all ages and assorted sizes. Our boys amused themselves by throwing “hard-tack” to them, and then what running and tumbling and scrambling would ensue! Little *blacks (not the original word used) and little whites, little dogs and big dogs, all joined in the race, and by the time the “hard-tack” was secured it was difficult to determine what were the original ingredients.” - a Union soldier stationed at Shreveport, Louisiana after the war
“Hundreds of thousands of slaves freed during the American civil war died from disease and hunger after being liberated, according to a new book.
The analysis, by historian Jim Downs of Connecticut College, casts a shadow over one of the most celebrated narratives of American history, which sees the freeing of the slaves as a triumphant righting of the wrongs of a southern plantation system that kept millions of black Americans in chains.
But, as Downs shows in his book, Sick From Freedom, the reality of emancipation during the chaos of war and its bloody aftermath often fell brutally short of that positive image. Instead, freed slaves were often neglected by union soldiers or faced rampant disease, including horrific outbreaks of smallpox and cholera. Many of them simply starved to death.
After combing through obscure records, newspapers and journals Downs believes that about a quarter of the four million freed slaves either died or suffered from illness between 1862 and 1870. He writes in the book that it can be considered “the largest biological crisis of the 19th century” and yet it is one that has been little investigated by contemporary historians.
Downs believes much of that is because at the time of the civil war, which raged between 1861 and 1865 and pitted the unionist north against the confederate south, many people did not want to investigate the tragedy befalling the freed slaves. Many northerners were little more sympathetic than their southern opponents when it came to the health of the freed slaves and anti-slavery abolitionists feared the disaster would prove their critics right.”

@D A I did.. Homeboy killed it.
In an odd way this song is the ideal anthem. Like another commenter said this song is purely about joy and pride in belonging to a homeland. To be reminded of home everytime you hear it is exactly what you should feel. Even if you believe the song to be controversial due to its history, had you not known it you would think it's marvelous
It’s unlike most national anthems which often seemed forced and fake
@@JackDSquat Yeah the only anthem that comes nearly as patriotic is the Sovi- (Russian!) Anthem. They used their old tune and it still sounds majestic. Doubt the Russian people are feeling that spirit now with the current affairs

The song doesn't in any way, but it's very easy to see the relationship between Confederate icons and some people construing it as representing Confederate values, ie. owning slaves, racism. It's a farce but I understand why people think that way.

As an African-American, even with the context of this song and where it came from and how it was used, still catchy af.
It's kinda like "Erica" or other German songs that were most prominent during the Nazi government, not exactly from the party itself but definitely known for being associated with it.
It seems like the bad guys always know how to make catchy songs

I mention all this to say that Texas has never really been considered a part of "The South". The South doesn't claim us. We're more Southwest. Even so, this song is a real banger, maybe even the First banger, and I wish people would get over it. It's catchy af and I like singing it to myself whilst I work. It's not inherently racist. Liking the South as a culture or heritage is not inherently racist. It's only racist if your feel racistly about it.
