It’s Slumbertime Along the Swanee lyrics

by

Ella Fitzgerald



[Verse 1]
Moon is creeping up behind the levee
Pickaninny's eyelids are getting mighty heavy
Down in the southland, sandman's on his way
It's slumbertime along the Swanee

[Verse 2]
Hush of the evening falls on every cabin
Birds are feather nesting and crickets starts to gabbin'
That's when the sandman's busy as a bee
It's slumbertime along the Swanee

[Bridge]
Little cold black roses tired from play
All tumble into bed
Soon they'll all be dreamin'
About molasses and shortenin' bread

[Verse 3]
Moon comes high up peeping through the willows
Little dusky darlings are sleeping on their pillows
Down in the southland, sandman goes his way
It's slumbertime along the Swanee
