Yeah
And “I don’t mind” is where the demons roam
Last night I met fear, doubt, hurt, hate, pain
Told me, “If you don’t change, then we don’t go”
They’ll give us life, and …
[Verse 1: Lorde]
A couple rebel top gun pilots
Flyin’ with nowhere to be, oh
Don’t know you super well
But I think that you might be the same as me
Behave abnormally
[Pre-Chorus: Lorde]
Let’s let …
I’ve got fire for a heart, I’m not scared of the dark
You’ve never seen it look so easy
I got a river for a soul and baby you’re a boat
Baby, you’re …
Lights, camera, acción
Lights, camera, acción
You say you a bad guy
You-you-you a bad guy
That’s why everyone likes you
They say that you’re so fun
And you’re so cool
They call you Baby Blue
Because it’s …
[Verse 1]
There’s a voice in my head telling me to stay
If I take one more step, I’ll never be the same
I keep running, running, running, running from your love
And I …
(Verse 1)
She had a dead-end job at the National Bank
And a deadbeat husband who always drank 1
So when he didn’t come home she had the gin to thank
For the tears in her eyes
So Dixie packed up and said her goodbyes and she went 2
(Chorus)
Driving so far away nobody’s gonna find her
Flying just fast enough to leave it all behind her 3
But she didn’t know till she hit the road deep in her soul
She’s got the fire and the fight of a gypsy
Ain’t nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
The heart of Dixie 4
(Verse 2)
It’s a funny thing when your world falls down
It’s got a way of showing you what you’re all about 5
Now Dixie’s got her wheels pointed south
And she ain’t never looking back
Nobody knew she was brave like that and she went 6
(Chorus)
Driving so far away nobody’s gonna find her
Flying just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didn’t know till she hit the road deep in her soul
She’s got the fire and the fight of a gypsy
Ain’t nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
The heart of Dixie
(Bridge)
Yeah Dixie woke up to the truth one day
Grabbed her cheap sunglasses and her lipstick case and she went 7
(Chorus)
Driving so far away nobody’s gonna find her
Flying just fast enough to leave it all behind her
But she didn’t know till she hit the road deep in her soul
She’s got the fire and the fight of a gypsy
Ain’t nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
The heart of Dixie
(Outro)
O-o-oh
The heart of Dixie
O-o-oh
Danielle starts by giving the problems that were plaguing Dixie, including a job with no promising future and a useless husband with alcohol issues.
She sings that one day Dixie’s husband did not come home either because of an alcohol induced accident or because he simply did not feel like going back home. The failure of her husband to return marked a new chapter in her life because it gave her the courage, although amid tears, that she needed to make major changes in her life.
Danielle says that Dixie had the idea to get as far as she could from all that knew her and to get there she drove in hurry, as if going to sort out something urgent.
Danielle sings that with every mile that Dixie took away from her past life, the more she discovered a strength hidden within. Danielle compares her determination to that of a gypsy determined to make it through life, because of her journey she discovered her true worth.
Danielle is saying that people more often than not, in life, only discover their true potential when they are plagued by challenges. One can either make it through the challenges or get consumed by the challenge.
According to Danielle, Dixie seems to have spent all of her life in her hometown, where everybody considered her to be timid. The absence of her husband however, gave her the courage that she needed to make a new start, far away from her hometown.
Danielle is giving a list of the things that Dixie took, it seems she was eager for a fresh start so she just left everything old that she had behind her. It may also be that these were the only things that she considered of value to her.
