Lyrics

Swanee, how I love ya
How I love ya, my dear old Swanee
I'd give the world to be among my folks in D-I-X-I-E
But no, my people are waitin' for me, prayin' for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore
Ah, Swanee, how I love ya
How I love ya, my dear old Swanee
I'd give the world if I could only be among my folks in D-I-X-I-E
But no, my people are waitin' for me, prayin' for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north will never see me no more
When I get to that Swanee
Let me get to that Swanee
When I cross that Swanee shore
Written by: Caésar, George Gershwin
