How'd you like to do a little favor for us?
Come and join us in the chorus
Sing along one and all
With the little bouncing ball
Now if you like the songs about the land of cotton
This one will not be forgotten
Sing it loud, sing it low
Come one friends
Sing sleepy
time
down
south
Pale moon's shining on the the fields below
Darkies crooning soft and low
You needn't tell me, honey, cause I know
It's sleepy time down south
Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
Folks down there live a life of ease
When old mammy falls upon her knees
It's sleepy time down south
Steamboats on the river comin' and goin'
Splashing the night away
Hear those banjos ringin', darkies a-singin'
They dance 'til break of day, oh
Dear old southland with her dreamy song
Take me there where I belong
How I'd love to be in mammy's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
Pale moon's shining on the fields below
Darkies croonin' soft and low
You needn't tell me, honey, cause I know
It's sleepy time down south
Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
Folks down there live a life of ease
When old mammy falls upon her knees
It's sleepy time down south
Steamboats on the river comin' a-goin'
Splashing the night away, oh
Hear those banjos ringin', darkies a-singin'
They dance 'til break of day
Dear old southland with her dreamy song
Take me there where I belong
How I'd love to be in mammy's arms
When it's sleepy time down south
