Under The Southern Moonlight

Abstract

[Verse 1] Way down South where the cotton am a growing, Way down where the Mississippi’s flowing; That’s the place I long to be going Down in Dixie Land. Seems I hear those banjo’s ringing Way off I can hear the darkies singing; Oh what joy those mem’ries am a bringing From Dixie Land. [Chorus] Under the Southern Moonlight, Under the Southern skies, That’s where I met my lady love, That’s where I said “Good bye.” Never no more I’ll leave her Never no more I’ll roam, Way down South in Dixie Land, My Home Sweet Home. [Verse 2] Good old days can never be forgotten Way down in the land of cane and cotton, All around the folks am a squatin’ Singing Dixie Land. There I left my dusky charmer, Way down in the State of Alabama; All I hope, is nothing comes to harm her In Dixie Land. [Chorus
