Now the pale moon shinin' on the fields below |
|
The folks are crooning soft and low |
|
You needn't tell me by because I know |
|
When it's sleepy time down south |
|
Soft winds blowing through the pine wood trees |
|
The folks down there live a life of ease |
|
When old mammy falls upon her knees |
|
When it's sleepy time down south |
|
Steamboats on the river a coming or a going by [Incomprehensible] |
|
Splashing the night away |
|
[Incomprehensible] hear those banjos ringing, the people are singing |
|
They dance 'til the break of day |
|
Oh dear old southland with his dreamy songs |
|
Take me back, where I belong |
|
Riding in mammy's arms |
|
When it's sleepy time way down south |
|
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs |
|
Take me back, where I belong |
|
Riding in my mammy's arms |
|
When it's sleepy time down south |
|
Sleepy time down south |
|
Yes [Incomprehensible] |
