When It's Sleepy Time Down South

Pale moon shinin' on the fields below Oaks are croonin' so soft and low No need tellin' 'cause I know It's sleepy time down south Soft wind blowin' To them pinewood trees Folks down there They live a life of these When my mama falls on her knees It's sleepy time down south Steam boats on the river Keep a comin' and a goin' Splashin' the night away Hear the banjos ringin' Folks keep a singin' They dance till break of day Dear old south land With your dreamy song Take me back there That's where I belong Oh, I'd love to be In my sweet mama's arms When it's sleepy time Sleepy time down south
