Way down upon the Swanee River
Far far away
That's where my heart is yearning ever
There's where the old folks stay
All the world is sad and dreary
Ev'rywhere I roam
I'm lonely in my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
All up and down the whole creation
Sadly I roam
Still a-longin' for the old plantation
And for the old folks at home
All the world is sad and dreary
Ev'rywhere I roam
I'm lonely in my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
