I've been away from you a long time
I never thought I'd miss you so
Somehow I feel your love was real
Near you I long to be
The birds are singing, it is song time
The banjos strumming 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 Dixie
I know my Mammy's waiting, praying for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north gonna see me no more
When I go to the Swanee shore
Swanee, Swanee, I'm coming back to Swanee
Oh Mammy, little Mammy
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 Dixie
I know my Mammy, oh she's waiting for me, needs me, desires me
Down, down by the Swanee
The folks up north will see me no more
When I go to the Swanee
Yes, when I go to the Swanee shore
