Lyrics
Chorus
Open up the golden gates to Dixie
And let me in to Paradise
Don’t keep me waitin’
A little Angel down there
I don’t want to miss
She’s going to meet me
She’s goin’ to treat me
To a lot of heavenly bliss and when
I put my lovin’ arms around her
I’m goin’ to slip a wedding band upon her hand
Then give me time and you will see
A lot of little Angels that will look like me
Open up the golden gates to dear old Dixie land
Performance
