Lyrics When It's Sleepy Time Down South - The Boswell Sisters
How'd
you
like
to
do
a
little
favor
for
us?
Come
and
join
us
in
the
chorus
Sing
along
one
and
all
With
the
little
bouncing
ball
Now
if
you
like
the
songs
about
the
land
of
cotton
This
one
will
not
be
forgotten
Sing
it
loud,
sing
it
low
Come
one
friends
Sing
"sleepy
time
down
south"
Pale
moon's
shining
on
the
the
fields
below
Darkies
crooning
soft
and
low
You
needn't
tell
me,
honey,
cause
I
know
It's
sleepy
time
down
south
Soft
winds
blowing
through
the
pinewood
trees
Folks
down
there
live
a
life
of
ease
When
old
mammy
falls
up
on
her
knees
It's
sleepy
time
down
south
Steamboats
on
the
river
comin'
and
goin'
Splashing
the
night
away
Hear
those
banjos
ringin',
darkies
a-singin'
They
dance
'til
break
of
day,
oh
Dear
old
southland
with
her
dreamy
song
Take
me
there
where
I
belong
How
I'd
love
to
be
in
mammy's
arms
When
it's
sleepy
time
down
south
Pale
moon's
shining
on
the
fields
below
Darkies
croonin'
soft
and
low
You
needn't
tell
me,
honey,
cause
I
know
It's
sleepy
time
down
south
Soft
winds
blowing
through
the
pinewood
trees
Folks
down
there
live
a
life
of
ease
When
old
mammy
falls
up
on
her
knees
It's
sleepy
time
down
south
Steamboats
on
the
river
comin'
a-goin'
Splashing
the
night
away,
oh
Hear
those
banjos
ringin',
darkies
a-singin'
They
dance
'til
break
of
day
Dear
old
southland
with
her
dreamy
song
Take
me
there
where
I
belong
How
I'd
love
to
be
in
mammy's
arms
When
it's
sleepy
time
down
south
