Away down South in Dixie

Away down South In Dixie
Our famous Nimrod goes,
With guns and ammunition.
And rugged I'm hunting clothes.
This time for bar he's loaded.
For II Is his delight
To bag the biggest varmints
As trophies OF his might.
He In the East has hunted
All through the North as well,
The skins OF mountain lions
His western triumphs tell.
So now to be impartial
And treat all just the same.
He travels down to Dixie
In search OF southern game.
The bears down there don't know him.
For they have never heard
About his aim unerring,
When after beast or bird.
And some may he so foolish
That when he comes in sight
They'll make a blufr and scare him
BY fixing for a fght.
Twill take about a minute.
Perhaps not half so long.
To prove 10 Mister Bruin
That he In In the wrong;
For suddenly a bullet
VIII terminate his growl.
And there'll be one less varmint
In southern woods TO prowl.
So mighty is his prowess
Twill likely take car
To carry all the trophies
lie bags while hunting bar.
And all the bears surviving
Will fully understand
''ris wise 10 sneak when Roosevelt
Goes down to Dfxieland.
