Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair Lyrics

Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair - Sam Cooke (山姆·库克)

Written by:Stephen Foster

I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair

 

Borne like a vapor on the summer's air

 

I see her tripping where the bright streams play

 

Happy as the daisies that dance on her way

 

Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour

 

Many were the blithe birds that warbled warbled them o'er

 

I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair

 

Floating like a vapor on the soft summer air

 

I long for Jeanie with the day dawn smile

 

Radiant in gladness warm winning guile

 

I hear her melodies like joys gone by

 

Sighing round my heart o'er the fond hopes that die

 

Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain

 

Wailing for the lost one that comes comes not again

 

I long for Jeanie and my heart bows low

 

 

Nevermore to find her where the bright waters flow

.
