When It's Sleepy Time 歌詞
When It's Sleepy Time Down South(08-20-34) - Ethel Waters
Now the pale moon shining on the fields below
The folks are crooning songs soft and low
You needn't tell me boy because I know
When it's sleepy time down south
Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
The folks down there live a life of ease
When old mammy falls on her knees
It's sleepy time down south
Steamboats on the river a coming or a going
Splashing the night away
You hear those banjos ringing all the people are singing
They dance till the break of day
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Takes me back there where I belong
How I'd love to been someone in my mammy's arms
When it's sleepy time way down south
Steamboats on the river a coming or a going
Splashing the night away
I can hear those banjos ringing all the folks are singing
They dance till the break of day
Dear old southland with your dreamy songs
Take me back down where I know I belong
Right here in my mammy's arms
When it's sleepy time away down south
