Guess I got what I deserve
Kept you waiting there, too long my love
All that time, without a word
Didn't know you'd think, that I'd forget, or I'd regret
The special love I have for you,

 my Baby Blue
All the days became so long
Did you really think, I'd do you wrong
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize, that I would know, I would show
The special love I have for you,

my Baby Blue
What can I do, what can I say
Except that I want you by my side
How can I show, you, show me a way
Don't you know, the times I tried

Guess that's all I have to say
Except the feeling just gets stronger, everyday
Just one thing, before I go
Take good care, baby, let me know, let it grow
The special love, you have for me, my Dixie dear
