“Oh,
I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old
times 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
For
Dixieland, that’s where I was born
Early
Lord one frosty morn
Look
away, look away, look away Dixieland
Glory,
glory hallelujah
Glory,
glory hallelujah
Glory,
glory hallelujah
His
truth is marching on …”

The
peace of a beautiful southern fall morning floats along with the Colleton River
in the Lowcountry of Beaufort County, South Carolina on a late October day in
Dixie.
