Swanee Lyrics - Judy Garland

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 

The banjos strummin' soft and low 

I know that you 

Yearn for me too, 

Swanee, you're calling 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 now my Mammy's waiting for me, 

Praying for me 

Down by the Swanee 

The folks up north will see me no more 

When I go to the Swanee Shore! 

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 now my Mammy's waiting for me, 

Praying for me 

Down by the Swanee 

The folks up north will see me no more 

When I go to the Swanee Shore! 

Swanee, Swanee, I'm coming back to Swanee! 

Mammy, Mammy, I love the old folks at home! 

Swanee, Swanee, I am coming back to Swanee! 

Mammy, Mammy, I love the old folks at home!
