Waiting For The Robert E Lee Lyrics
Waiting For The Robert E Lee - Al Jolson
Way down on the levee in old alabamy
There's daddy and Mammy
There's Efran and Sammy
On a moonlight night you can find them all
While they are waiting
The banjos are syncopating
What's that they're saying
What's that they're saying
While they keep playing
I'm humming and swaying
It's the good ship Robert E Lee
That's come to carry the cotton away
Watch them shuffle along
See them shuffle along
Oh take your best gal your real pal
Go down to the levee I said to the levee
And join that shuffling throng
Hear that music and song
It's simply great mate waiting on the levee
Waiting for the Robert E Lee
Watch them shuffling along
See them shuffling along
Go take your best gal your real pal
Go down to the levee I said to the levee
Join the shuffling throng
Hear the music and song
It's simply great mate waiting on the levee
Waiting for the Robert E Lee
