歌词
Way down upon de Swanee river
Far, far away
Dere's wha my heart is turning ebber
Dere's wha de old folks stay
All up and down de whole creation
Sadly I roam
Still longing for de old plantation
And for de old folks at home
All de world am sad and dreary
Ebry where I roam
Oh! darkies how my heart grows weary
Far from de old folks at home
All round de little farm I wandered
When I was young
Den many happy days I squandered
Many de songs I sung
When I was playing wid my brudder
Happy was I
Oh! take me to my kind old mudder
Dere let me live and die
