Bye & Bye

Don't the moon look bright

Mama, shinin' down on me

By and by, sweet mama

Sweet mama, by and by

You can go, you can stay

Oh baby, I fear

'Cause if you stay too long

I won't understand you, dear

Now I'm goin' to Vicksburg

And mama, I don't even care

But I can't get into Natchez

They tell me there's high water there

Don't the moon look bright

Shinin' down on me

By and by, sweet mamo

Mamo, by and by
