Dixie Chicks

The Dixie Chicks are an American country music band which has also crossed over into other genres. The band is composed of founding members (and sisters) Martie Erwin Maguire and Emily Erwin Robison, and lead singer Natalie Maines. The band formed in 1989 in Dallas, Texas and was originally composed of four women performing bluegrass and country music, busking and touring the bluegrass festival circuits and small venues for six years without attracting a major label. After the departure of one bandmate, the replacement of their lead singer, and a slight change in their repertoire, the Dixie Chicks soon achieved commercial success, beginning in 1998 with hit songs "There's Your Trouble" and "Wide Open Spaces". more »

I was standin' by the bedside of a sister
 Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide
 And I asked her if she would do me a favor
 And kindly take this message to the other side
 Well, if you see my savior tell him that you saw me
 And when you saw me I was on my way
 You may meet some boyfriends who may ask about me
 You tell 'em I am a comin' home someday
 I was standin' by the bedside of a sister
 Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide
 And I asked her if she would do me a favor
 And kindly take this message to the other side
 Well you may have to make this journey on without me
 Sooner or later, sooner or later it's a debt that must be paid
 When you reach that goal that's when you'll think about me
 But don't forget to tell my savior what I said
 I was standin' by the bedside of a sister
 Who was just about to cross that swellin' tide
 And I asked her if she would do me a favor
 And kindly take this message to the other side
