Dean Martin When It`s Sleepy Time Down South Lyrics

When It`s Sleepy Time Down South Lyrics

Pale moon shining on the fields below

Folks are crooning songs soft and low

Needn't tell me so because I know

It's sleepy time down South



Soft winds blowing through the pine wood trees

Folks down there live a life of ease

When old mammy falls upon her knees

It's sleepy time down south



Steamboats on the river a coming, a going

Splashing the night away

Hear those banjos ringing, the people are singing

They dance 'til break of day, hey, hey



Dear old Southland with his dreamy songs

Takes me back there where I belong

How I'd love to be in my mammy's arms

When it's sleepy time way down South



Dear old southland with his dreamy songs

Take me back there where I belong

How I'd love to be in my mammy's arms

When it's sleepy time down South

Sleepy time down South
