Old Folks At Home[Bearbeiten]
- 1st Verse
- C 'Way down upon the F Swanee River, C far, far a- G7 way
- C That's where my heart is F turning ever, C that's where the G7 old folks C stay
- C All up and down the F whole creation, C sadly I G7 roam
- C Still longing for the F old plantation, C and for the G7 old folks at C home
- Chorus
- G7 All the world is C sad and dreary, F everywhere I C roam G7
- C Oh! Lordy, how my F heart grows weary, C far from the G7 old folks at C home
- 2nd Verse
- C All 'round the little F farm I wandered, C when I was G7 young
- C Then many happy F days I squandered, C many a G7 song I C sung
- C When I was playing F with my brother, C happy was G7 I
- C Oh! take me to my F kind old mother, C there let me G7 live and C die (Chorus)
- 3rd Verse
- C One little hut a- F mong the bushes, C one that I G7 love
- C Still sadly to my F mem'ry rushes, C no matter G7 where I C rove
- C When will I see the F bees a-humming C all a- C round the G7 comb?
- C When will I hear the F banjo strummin' C down in my G7 good old C home? (Chorus)
