Guess I got what I deserved,
Kept you waiting there too long my love.
All that time without a word,
Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget,
Or I'd regret the special love I had for you,
My Baby Blue.

All the days became so long,
Did you really think I'd do you wrong.
Dixie, when I let you go,
Thought you'd realize that I would know,
That I would show the special love I have for you,
My Baby Blue.

What can I do, what can I say,
Except I want you by my side.
How can I show you, show me a way,
Don't you know the times I've tried.

Guess that's all I have to say,
Except the feeling just grows stronger every day.
So, just one thing before I go,
Take good care, baby, let me know.
Let it grow, the special love you have for me,
My Dixie, dear.
