Patti Austin - Swanee Lyrics




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 singin', it is song time
The banjos playin' soft and low
I know that you
Long for me too
Swanee, you're callin' 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
D-I-X-I-E-ven no my mama's
Waiting for me
Praying for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up North will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore
Swanee, Swanee
I'm going back to Swanee
Mama and my daddy
I love the old folks at home
Woah
Swanee
How I love you, how I love you
My dear old Swanee
I'd give the world to be
Among the folks in
D-I-X-I
D-I-X-I-E-ven no my mama's
Waiting for me
Praying for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up North will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore
Swanee Shore
Going home
Won't be long
Swanee
How I love you, how I love you
Swanee
How I love you, how I love you
Swanee
How I love you, how I love you
Take me to that good old Swanee shore
