Temple Shirley - Dixie-Anna Minstrel Show Intro Lyrics

Lyrics/Music T.Koehler/J.McHugh



The Louisiana moon is shining

On the starry sky, alone

The lonesome an' the old are waiting

And the lady loves, hmmmm

While the shades of night are falling

You can hear them softly calling



Dixie-Anna

Oh Miss Dixie-Anna

Don't keep me waiting

If you want to come out tonight

Roll and shinin'

And my heart divinin'

Come on and meet me in the moonlight



Can't you understand

Love is in the air

Love pretending there rolling everywhere



Dixie-Anna

Oh Miss Dixie-Anna

Don't keep me waiting

If you want to come out tonight

Lone and shining

And my heart inviting

Come out and meet me in the moonlight



Oh Dixie-Anna

Don't you keep me waiting

You know that ain't right
