When It's Sleepy Time Down South
Pale moon shining on the fields below
Folks are crooning songs soft and low
Neednt tell me so because I know
Its sleepy time down south
Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
Folks down there like a life of ease
When old mammy falls upon her knees
Its sleepy time down south
Steamboats on the river a coming or a going
Splashing the night away
Hear those banjos ringing , the people are singing
They dance til the break of day, hey
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Takes me back there where I belong
How Id love to be in my mammys arms
When its sleepy time way down south
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Take me back there where I belong
How Id love to be in my mammys arms
When its sleepy time down south
Sleepy time down south
