Rock-a-bye your baby
With a Dixie melody
When you croon, croon a tune
From the heart of DixieAnd just hang my cradle, mammy mine
Right on that Mason Dixon line
And swing it from Virginia
To Tennessee with all the heart that's in yaWeep no more, my lady
Sing the song for me
Hey, little Joe, just as though
You had me on your kneeA million baby kisses, I'm gonna deliver
The minute that you sing that Swanee River
Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby
With a Dixie melodyOh, weep no more, my fair lady
Why don't you sing the song for me?
Hey, little Joe, just as though
You had me right downA million baby kisses, I said, I said I'm gonna deliver
The minute that you sing that, oh, Swanee River
Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby
With a Dixie melodyOne more time, yeahA million baby kisses, I'm gonna deliver
The minute that you sing, that, oh, Swanee oh, River
Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby
With a Dixie melody, oh
