Chorus
“Dinah, is there anyone finer in the state of Carolina
If there is and you know ‘er, show ‘er to me
Dinah, with her Dixie eyes blazin’
How I love to sit and gaze into the eyes of Dinah Lee
Ev’ry night why do I shake with fright
Because my Dinah might change her mind about me
Dinah, if she wandered to China
I would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee
