Duke Ellington & His Orchestra - When It's Sleepy Time Down South Lyrics

Lyrics When It's Sleepy Time Down South - Duke Ellington & His Orchestra



Homesick tired All alone in a big city
Why should ev'rybody pity me,
Nighttime's falling, folks are a singin',
They dance till break of day
Dear Old Southland with it's dreamy songs
Takes me back there where I belong
How I'd love to be in mammy's arms
