I love Atlanta
I said- Atlanta
The brightest star that shines way down in Dixie Land

I love Atlanta
Great town Atlanta
It’s time for you to shine  So, let’s strike up the band

Sweet Magnolia blossoms
And your soft Southern drawl
Gracious hospitality sayin’ “Come down South, Y’all”

I love Atlanta
God Bless Atlanta
The reigning queen of Dear Old Dixie, Dixie Land

Peachtrees are a-bloomin’
Under sunny summer skies
Pretty smilin’ women  Oh, it must be paradise

Down in Atlanta
I said Atlanta
You rise above them all your beauty is so grand

I love Atlanta
God bless Atlanta
Well, you’re the brightest star in Dixie
I said, the brightest star in Dixie
Oh, you’re the brightest star in Dear Old Dixie Land

 (Dixieland jam- instrumental)

Peachtrees are a-bloomin’
Under sunny summer skies
Pretty smilin’ women Oh, it must be paradise

Down in Atlanta
I said Atlanta
You rise above them all your beauty is so grand

I love Atlanta
God bless Atlanta
Well, you’re the brightest star in Dixie
I said, the brightest star in Dixie
Oh, you’re the brightest star in Dear Old Dixie Land
