Down Where the Swanee River Flows - George Wilton Ballard/The Peerless Quartet

I had a big surprise today

While in a ten cent photo play

I Really saw my old home town

Way down in Dixieland

It was Simply grand

Just to sit right there

And gaze on the scenes

Of bygone days

Made me yearn to return

To the land and people

I will love always

I even saw the same old school

Where I learned the golden rule

Down where the Swanee River flows

I want to be there Down where

The cotton blossom grows

I want to see there

My little sister Flo

And keeping time with Uncle Joe

Singing a song and ragging on his

Old banjo I see my dear old Mother

Oh Lordy Lordy Lordy how I love her

When the birds are singing

In the wildwood My happy

Childhood comes back

Once more my heart is sore

That's why I'm Going back

Where they care for me

Every night they say a little prayer

For me down where the Swanee River flows

I'd like to meet that movie man

I want to shake him by the hand

I Want to tell him

That he wrote a grand scenario

He knew where to Go

Plain as day upon the screen

Hezakiah can be seen

Little Mose On his toes

Looking at the camera

Nearly spoiled the scene

I saw The cotton white as foam

I saw my home sweet home

Down where the Swanee River flows

I want to be there

Down where the cotton blossom grows

I want to see there

My little sister Flo

And keeping time with Uncle Joe

Singing a song and ragging on his

Old banjo I see my dear old Mother

Oh Lordy Lordy Lordy how I love her

When the birds are singing

In the wildwood My happy

Childhood comes back

Once more my heart is sore

That's why I'm Going back

Where they care for me

Every night they say a little prayer

For me down where the Swanee River flows
