歌曲名 When It's Sleepy Time Down South

歌手名 Billie Holiday

Homesick tired all alone in a big city

Why should eveybody pity me

Nighttime falling and I'm yearning for Virginia

Hospitality within calls me

Pale moon shining on the fields below

Folks are crooning songs soft and low

Need not tell me so

Because I know it's sleepy time down south

Softs winds blowing throught the pinewood trees

Folks down there live a life of ease

When those memory falls upon the needs

It's sleepy time down south

Steamboats on the river a coming a going

Splashing the night away

Hear those banjos ringing

The folks are all singing

They dance till break of day

Say dear old southland with it's dreamy songs

Takes me back there where I belong

Oh how I love to bring mothers arms

When it's sleepy time down south

Dear old southland with it's dreamy songs

Take me back there where I belong

Oh how I love to bring mothers arms

When it's sleepy time down south

When it's sleepy time down south

When it's sleepy time down south
