VERSE 01: Mammy mine,/Your little rollin’ stone that rolled away | |
strolled away | |
/Mammy mine,/Your rollin’ stone is rollin’ home today | |
there to stay./Just to see your smilin’ face,/Smile a welcome sign | |
/When I’m in your fond embrace,/Listen Mammy mine.VERSE 02: Any time,/I hear a Mammy sing her babe to sleep | |
slumber deep | |
/That’s the time,/The shadows ‘round my heart begin to creep | |
and I weep./Wonder why I went away?/What a fool I’ve been!/Take me back to yesterday,/In your arms again.CHORUS: Rock a bye baby with a Dixie melody | |
/When you croon, croon a tune, from the heart of Dixie,/Just hang my cradle Mammy mine,/Right on that Mason Dixon Line/And swing it from Virginia, to Tennessee with all the love that’s in yer./”Weep no more my lady,” sing that song again for me | |
/And “Old Black Joe,” just as though you had me on your knee | |
/A million baby kisses I’ll deliver,/The minute that you sing the “Swanee River,”/Rock a bye your rock a bye baby with a Dixie melody. | |
