Sleepy Time Down South - Live

Lyrics

Now the pale moon shining on the fields below
 That folks are crooning soft and low
 You needn't tell me, boy, because I know, yes
 When it's sleepy time down south, yes
 The soft wind blowin' through the pine wood trees
 That folks down there live a life of ease
 When old mammy falls on her knees, yes
 When it's sleepy time down south, yes
 Steamboats on the river a coming or a going
 Splashing the night away, oh yes
 You hear those banjos ringin', and the folks are singin'
 And they dance till the break of day, yes
 Dear old southland with his dreamy song
 Yeah, take me back where I belong
 Right in my mammy's arms
