I've been away from you a long time
I never
thought I'd missed you so
Somehow I
feel
You love is real
Near you I long
to/wanna be

The birds are singin', it is
song time
The banjos strummin' soft and
low
I know that you
Yearn for me
too
Swanee ! You're calling me !

Chorus
:

Swanee !
How I love you, how I love
!
My dear ol' Swanee
I'd give the world to
be
Among the folks in
D-I-X-I-E-ven no[w]My
mammy's 
Waiting for me
Praying for
me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north
will see me no more
When I go to the Swanee
Shore !
(bis Chorus)

Swanee, Swanee, I
am coming back to Swanee !
Mammy, Mammy, I
love the old folks at home !
(bis)
