Lyrics

I've been away from you a long time
I never thought I'd missed you so
Somehow I feel your love is real
Near you, I wanna be
The birds are singin', it is song time
The banjos strummin' soft and low
I know that you yearn for me too
Swanee, you're calling me
Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee
I'd give the world to be among the folks in DIX, I even know
My mammy's waiting for me, praying for me down by the Swanee
The folks up North will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee Shore
I love the old folks at home
Swanee, how I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee
I'd give the world to be among the folks in DIX, I even know
My mammy's waiting for me, praying for me down by the Swanee
The folks up North will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee Shore
Written by: Caésar, George Gershwin
