About The Song
An American Trilogy is a 1972 song medley arranged by country composer Mickey Newbury and popularized by Elvis Presley. It was a highlight of his live shows, particularly the iconic 1973 “Aloha from Hawaii” concert, which was seen by an estimated 1.5 billion people worldwide.
An American Trilogy has been interpreted as exploring themes of division and reconciliation, reflecting on the turbulent history of the United States and its enduring hope for a harmonious and inclusive nation.

Lyrics
Oh I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old times they are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland
Sing it, fellas.
Oh I wish I was in Dixie, away, away
In Dixieland
I’ll take my stand
To live and die in Dixie
For Dixieland I was born
Early Lord one frosty morn’
Look away, look away, look away, Dixieland
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
Glory, glory, hallelujah
His truth is marching on
So hush, little baby, don’t you cry
You know your daddy’s bound to die
But all my trials, Lord, soon be over
Glory, glory, hallelujah
His truth is marching on
His truth is marching on
