I wish my baby had deep pockets
So we could run around
Spendin' all her money
Paintin' up the town
I wish my baby had deep pockets
I'd love life everyday
She don't got deep pockets, boys
What's there left to say
I wish my baby had deep pockets
The deepest ones around
Her momma was made o' money
And her daddy owned the town
I wish my baby had deep pockets
I'd love life everyday
She don't got deep pockets, boys
What's there left to say
I wish my baby drove a caddy
The biggest one around
Burnin' all four tires
Around every turn in town
I wish my baby drove a caddy
I'd love life everyday
She don't drive no caddy, boys
It's some beat up Chevrolet
I wish my baby cooked me pork chops
The fattest ones around
I'd kiss her in the kitchen
With the cabbage boilin' down
I wish my baby cooked me pork chops
I'd love life everyday
Buy the gravy's way too lumpy, boys
What's there left to say

Two old cowboys the wind often whispers
C
Sweet reminders of where they belooooong
D G D
On back of a horse in a worn-out saddle
C D C D
Singin' a sweet country song, singin' a sweet country song
To old cowboys the wind often whispers
Some remember the right and the wrong
Trust a good wind and gun, don't be stupid, 'cause a
Bad wind is wicked and strong, a bad wind is wicked and strong
Chorus:
G D
And those big winds still blow across Wyoming
C
Two old cowboys, it's all they've ever known
D C???
How those big winds still blow across Wyoming
C D
From Cheyenne clear to Yellowstone
C D
From Cheyenne clear to Yellowstone
To old cowboys the wind often whispers
Son, remember the sweet bye and bye
Remember the day 'cause there's times a comin'
They'll be no place left for you and I, they'll be no place left for you and I

Verse 1:
G
Dixie was the pride of Alabama
G C
I met her on a lonesome midnight train
D G
Rollin' slowly out of Union Station
G D
She was staring out the window at the rain
Verse 2:
G
Well Dixie was from sunny Alabama
G C
Those old steel rails would roll to Birmingham
D G
Mobile, her final destination
G D
I looked down at the ticket in her hand
Chorus:
C D G
Southbound train it ain't you I know that done her wrong
C D G
Say again that you seen it coming all along
G C
All that she knew those sweet memories it's true
G D G
Dixie darling caught her southbound train
Verse 3:
G
Dixie asked if I'd been to Alabama
G C
Her voice was thick like some old southern night
D G
And maybe for the sake of conversation
G D
I said back in '88 or '89
Verse 4:
G
She said her daddy's fields were full of cotton
G C
By the river that she swam in as a child
D G
Lord she loved those sweet magnolia blossoms
G D
And that good ol' Honeysuckle growing wild
Chorus
Verse 5:
G
Dixie told me how she got to Denver
G C
A southern gal who coudn't stand the cold
D G
She fell in love and left Mobile forsaken
G D
Mistaken for a dusty pot of gold
Verse 6:
G
Dixie let the pieces fall together
G C
And painted up this picture in my mind
D G
Mobile, Alabama was a-callin' her back
G D
And the Pride of Alabama was on time
Chorus
