Guess I got what I deserved

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 had 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 I want you by my side

How can I show you, show me the way

Don't you know the times I've tried?

Guess that's all I have to say

Except the feeling just grows stronger every day

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.
