Lyrics Sleepy Time Down South - Louis Armstrong
Now
the
pale
moon
shining
on
the
fields
below
That
folks
are
crooning
soft
and
low
You
needn't
tell
me,
boy,
because
I
know,
yes
When
it's
sleepy
time
down
south,
yes
The
soft
wind
blowin'
through
the
pine
wood
trees
That
folks
down
there
live
a
life
of
ease
When
old
mammy
falls
on
her
knees,
yes
When
it's
sleepy
time
down
south,
yes
Steamboats
on
the
river
a
coming
or
a
going
Splashing
the
night
away,
oh
yes
You
hear
those
banjos
ringin',
and
the
folks
are
singin'
And
they
dance
till
the
break
of
day,
yes
Dear
old
southland
with
his
dreamy
song
Yeah,
take
me
back
where
I
belong
Right
in
my
mammy's
arms
