Swanee sing and play along

I've been away from you a long time.

I never thought I'd miss you so.

Somehow I feel your love was real.

Near you I long to be.

The birds are singing, it is song time,

the banjos strummin' soft and low.

I know that you yearn for me too.

Swanee, I long to be.

you're calling me.

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you,

my dear old

Swanee; I'd give the world to be among the folks in

DIXIEven though my mammy's waiting for me,

praying for me down by the

Swanee. The folks up north will see me no more when I go to the Swanee shore.

Swanee, how I love you, how I love you,

my dear old

Swanee; I'd give the world to be among the folks in

DIXIEven though my mammy's waiting for me,

praying for me down by the

Swanee. The folks up north will see me no more when I go to the Swanee shore.

(I'll be happy,

I'll be happy.)

Swanee, Swanee, I am coming back to

Swanee, Mammy, Mammy,

I love the old folks at home.

Swanee, Swanee, I am coming back to

Swanee, Mammy, Mammy,

I love the old folks at home.

home.
