《Down Where the Swanee River Flows》歌词

[00:00:00] Down Where the Swanee River Flows - George Wilton Ballard/The Peerless Quartet

[00:00:13] I had a big surprise today

[00:00:17] While in a ten cent photo play

[00:00:20] I Really saw my old home town

[00:00:23] Way down in Dixieland

[00:00:26] It was Simply grand

[00:00:27] Just to sit right there

[00:00:29] And gaze on the scenes

[00:00:32] Of bygone days

[00:00:34] Made me yearn to return

[00:00:36] To the land and people

[00:00:39] I will love always

[00:00:42] I even saw the same old school

[00:00:46] Where I learned the golden rule

[00:00:52] Down where the Swanee River flows

[00:00:57] I want to be there Down where

[00:01:00] The cotton blossom grows

[00:01:04] I want to see there

[00:01:06] My little sister Flo

[00:01:07] And keeping time with Uncle Joe

[00:01:10] Singing a song and ragging on his

[00:01:11] Old banjo I see my dear old Mother

[00:01:17] Oh Lordy Lordy Lordy how I love her

[00:01:21] When the birds are singing

[00:01:23] In the wildwood My happy

[00:01:27] Childhood comes back

[00:01:31] Once more my heart is sore

[00:01:34] That's why I'm Going back

[00:01:36] Where they care for me

[00:01:38] Every night they say a little prayer

[00:01:41] For me down where the Swanee River flows

[00:01:55] I'd like to meet that movie man

[00:01:59] I want to shake him by the hand

[00:02:02] I Want to tell him

[00:02:04] That he wrote a grand scenario

[00:02:08] He knew where to Go

[00:02:09] Plain as day upon the screen

[00:02:13] Hezakiah can be seen

[00:02:17] Little Mose On his toes

[00:02:18] Looking at the camera

[00:02:21] Nearly spoiled the scene

[00:02:24] I saw The cotton white as foam

[00:02:28] I saw my home sweet home

[00:02:35] Down where the Swanee River flows

[00:02:40] I want to be there

[00:02:43] Down where the cotton blossom grows

[00:02:47] I want to see there

[00:02:49] My little sister Flo

[00:02:50] And keeping time with Uncle Joe

[00:02:53] Singing a song and ragging on his

[00:02:54] Old banjo I see my dear old Mother

[00:03:00] Oh Lordy Lordy Lordy how I love her

[00:03:03] When the birds are singing

[00:03:06] In the wildwood My happy

[00:03:10] Childhood comes back

[00:03:14] Once more my heart is sore

[00:03:17] That's why I'm Going back

[00:03:19] Where they care for me

[00:03:21] Every night they say a little prayer

[00:03:23] For me down where the Swanee River flows
