swan ee river
Way down upon the Swanee River
Far far away
That's where my heart is yearning ever
There's where the old folks stay
All the world is sad and dreary
Ev'rywhere I roam
I'm lonely in my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
All up and down the whole creation
Sadly I roam
Still a-longin'for the old plantation
And for the old folks at home
All the world is sad and dreary
Ev'rywhere I roam
I'm lonely in my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
