Now,
my baby was a girl,
she was sweet sixteen
Her mother wouldn't listen to her dream
I didn't know she was a dreamer,
she dreamed an old southern dream
She was the dreamest girl,
the dreamest girl I've
most ever seen
Why, she knowed about lovin'
from kissin' on down
She was the dreamest girl
from miles around
I knowed she was a dreamer,
she dreamed them old southern dreams
She was the dreamest girl,
the dreamest girl I most ever seen
Why, she thinkin' I was kissin' her,
huggin' her, close to my breath
She told us much of the dream,
but she wouldn't tell the rest
And I know she was a dreamer,
she dreamed them old
southern dreams
She was the dreamest girl,
the dreamest girl I've most ever seen
Well, she dreamed that we was
kissin' down by the mill
She dreamed that she'd take me
from the girl on the hill
I know she was a dreamer,
she dreamed them old
southern dreams
She was the dreamest girl,
the dreamest girl I've most ever seen
Well, don't you know about kissin'
from huggin' on down
She was the dreamest girl
from miles around
I know she was a dream,
she dreamed of old Southern dreams
She was the dreamest girl,
the dreamest girl I've most ever
seen
Thank very much.
