By now in New York City, there's snow on the ground

And out in California, the sunshine's falling down

And, maybe down in Memphis, Graceland's all in lights

And in Atlanta, Georgia, there's peace on earth tonight



Chorus:

Chirstmas in Dixie, it's snowin' in the pines

Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight



It's windy in Chicago. The kids are out of school

There's magic in Motown. The city's on the move

In Jackson, Mississippi, to Charlotte, Caroline

And all across the nation, it's the peaceful Christmas time



Chorus



And from Fort Payne, Alabama

And Knoxville, Tennessee

Merry Christmas tonight
