Louis Armstrong - Sleepy Time Down South Lyrics



Louis Armstrong - Sleepy Time Down South Lyrics




Pale moon shining on the fields below
Folks are crooning songs soft and low
Needn't tell me so because I know
It's sleepy time down south

Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
Folks down there like a life of ease
When old mammy falls upon her knees
It's sleepy time down south

Steamboats on the river a-coming or a-going
Splashing the night away
Hear those banjos ringing; the people are singing
They dance til the break of day, hey

Dear old south-land with his dreamy songs
Takes me back there where I belong
How I'd love to be in my mammy's arms
When it's sleepy time way down south

Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Take me back there where I belong
How I'd love to be in my mammy's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
Sleepy time down south
