I've been away from you a long time. I never thought I'd miss you so. Somehow I feel, your love is real,. Near you I long to be!. . The birds are singing, it is song time.
Swanee, how I loves ya, how I loves ya. My dear old Swanee. I'd give the world to be among the folks in. D-I-X-I-E-ven though my mammy's. Waiting for me, praying for me.
Way down upon the Swanee river. Far far away. Swanee how I love you how I love you. My dear old Swanee. I'd give the world to be among the folks of D-I-X.
