Old Folks At Home

Old Folks At Home - Morriston Orpheus Choir

Way down upon de Swanee ribber

Far far away

Dere's wha my heart is turning ebber

Dere's wha de old folks stay

All up and down de whole creation

Sadly I roam

Still longing for de old plantation

And for de old folks at home

All de world am sad and dreary

Ebry where I roam

Oh darkeys how my heart grows weary

Far from de old folks at home

One little autumn monkey wishes

One that recap

Still sightly to my memory rushes

No match of war I know

When will I see the face of angry

All I become

When will I hear the banjo tambourine

Far from de old folks at home

All de world am sad and dreary

Ebry where I roam

Oh darkeys how my heart grows weary

Far from de old folks at home
