2.  Old Missus marry “Will-de-weaber”, William was a gay deceaber. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
But when he put his arm around ‘er, He smiled as fierce as a forty pounder. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
Chorus: 

3.  His face was sharp as a butcher’s cleaber, But dat did not seem to grab ‘er. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
Old Missus acted de foolish part, and died for a man dat broke her heart. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
Chorus: 

4.  Now here’s a health to the next old Missus, An all de gals dat want to kiss us. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
But if  you want to drive ‘way sorrow, Com and hear dis song to-morrow. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
Chorus: 

5.  Dar’s buck-wheat cakes in ingen’ batter, Make you fat or a little fatter. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land. 
Den hoe it down an scratch your grabble, To Dixie’s Land I’m bound to trabble. 
Look a-way, Look a-way! Look  a-way! Dix-ie land.
