Sleepy Time Down South

Pale moon shining on the fields below

Folks are crooning songs soft and low

Needn't tell me so because I know

It's sleepy time down southSoft winds blowing through the pinewood trees

Folks down there like a life of ease

When old mammy falls upon her knees

It's sleepy time down southSteamboats 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, heyDear old south-land with his dreamy songs

Takes me back there where I belong

How I'd love to be in my mammy's arms

When it's sleepy time way down south
