When It's Sleepy Time Down South Lyrics
Pale moon's shining on the fields below
Folks are crooning songs soft and low
Needn't tell me so, because I know
When it's sleepy time down south
Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
Folks down there live a life of ease
When the twilight brings the evening breeze
It's sleepy time down south
Steamboats on the river
They're comin' and goin', splashin' the night away
Hear those banjos ringing, the folks all singing
They dance 'til the break of day
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Take me back where I belong
I'll find heaven in my mother's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Take me back where I belong
I'll find heaven in my mother's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
I'll find heaven in my mother's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
Sleepy time down south
Folks are crooning songs soft and low
Needn't tell me so, because I know
When it's sleepy time down south
Folks down there live a life of ease
When the twilight brings the evening breeze
It's sleepy time down south
They're comin' and goin', splashin' the night away
Hear those banjos ringing, the folks all singing
They dance 'til the break of day
Take me back where I belong
I'll find heaven in my mother's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
Take me back where I belong
I'll find heaven in my mother's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
I'll find heaven in my mother's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
Sleepy time down south
