Jimmy Dean - When It's Sleepy Time Down South lyrics

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 pineywood trees folks down there they live a life of these

When my mama falls on her knees it's sleepy time down south

Stam 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
