When It's Sleepy Time Downs Lyrics & Tabs by Jimmy Dean
When It's Sleepy Time Downs
guitar chords lyrics
(Leone Rene - Otis Rene - Clarence Muse)
Pale moon shinin' on the fields below
Oaks are croonin' so soft and low
No need tellin' 'cause I know
It's sleepy time down south
Soft wind blowin' to them pineywood trees
Folks down there they live a life of these
When my mama falls on her knees
It's sleepy time down south.
Stam boats on the river keep a comin' and a goin'
Splashin' the night away
Hear the banjos ringin' folks keep a singin'
They dance till break of day.
Dear old south land with your dreamy song
Take me back there that's where I belong
They dance till break of day.
Dear old south land with your dreamy song
Take me back there that's where I belong
Oh, I'd love to be in my sweet mama's arms
When it's sleepy time, sleepy time down south...
