- Edison Record 4744 - Billy Murray - Are You From Dixie 1916 (Cause I'm From Dixie Too) (One-Step) Music & Lyrics by George L. Cobb, Jack Yellen.
William Thomas "Billy" Murray (May 25, 1877 -- August 17, 1954) was one of the most popular singers in the United States in the early decades of the 20th century. While he received star billing in Vaudeville, he was best known for his prolific work in the recording studio, making records for almost every record label of the era.
I can't imagine someone from New York or Chicago saying things like this to anyone. I may be wrong, since I'm not from the US, but I just feel the southerns have a special way.
@TheJimmieRodgersFan i am the jimmie rodgers fan..

This is why urban people are venomously envious...

@user-hu7oh5fx1p welcome to 2024
The king, Father of pop music from the beginning
Further proof of how far the world of music has fallen over the century.
Grandpa joes sang it pretty well too!
He also recorded this for Victor, Irving Kaufman, Arthur Fields is on the flip side, " Don't Bite The Hand That Feeds You ", two very good World War 1 songs
Billy murray is da best
Every word is clear and understandable.

Part of the Opening Chorus of the minstrel show I sang in
Ah, but it wasn't me! I'm Bill MARTIN, no relation to Billy Murray! I just sang this in High School in 1964.
Bill Martin
A minstrel show? Beautiful! It's hard to come by the traditional american music like that, I'd love to see a minstrel show some time soon.

It's good home down relax and cooking
The politicians made it predictable $$!!!
Interesting to contrast with "I Wanna Go Back to Dixie" by Tom Lehrer. Bill Murray's great, but I morally disapprove of this song. After all, Dixie wasn't much to sing about if you were black, and that lasted for at least two or three generations after 1916. The South as an entity is best de-emphasizing in favor of emphasizing America as a whole. Even the love for cotton fields seems a bit odd for that time, when the boll weevil was coming through the South and causing farmers to change crops. Seems as if the song clings to a time that should not be clung to. If the copyright has lapsed on this, I have ideas for a parody of it.
@@Billy219 Billy, then. My points are still valid.
most of those black people are from dixie, you need to take a step back and think about why you really hate the south, the theme of this song is love of homeland and your reaction is moral disgust, i see this often its really just sad, maybe youre the one that needs to let go of history since all it seems to do is leave a bad taste in your mouth.
Oh, get over it, Mr. Fusselman. Slavery and the Civil War have been over for almost 160 years. Yes, of course there were things about the historic South that were bad, but you could say that about any part of this country. This is a tuneful, entertaining song. Why not just listen and enjoy it, instead of reliving everything about the American past that you think is sad and bad?
@@wayneengle4473 I'm speaking more about when the song came out than about now. It was wrong at that time of the song's release to have such a song when segregation, lynchings, voter disenfranchisement, and other anti-American behaviors were going on. At 1916 it's way too early to praise the South as this idyllic friendly place. Now of course is a very different time, but I wouldn't fetishize the South any more than I'd fetishize the North. The shared American identity is far more worth our time to celebrate.
@D. Scott Calhoun, grow up and learn some manners. You have no clue about etiquette. You sound angry -- so what? Answer the points I made.
Bo ja też jestem z Dixie.
