Swanee

I've been away from you a long time
I never thought I'd miss you so
Somehow I feel
Your love is real
Near you I want to be
The birds are singing it is song time
The banjo's strumming soft and low
I know that you
Yearn for me too
Swannee, you're calling me

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee
I give the world to be
Among the folks in D-I-X-I-
Even though my [mommy's] waiting for me
Praying for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore

I miss the old folks at home

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee
I give the world to be
Among the folks in D-I-X-I-
Even though my
Waiting for me
Praying for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore
