Way down upon the Swanee River,
Far, far, away,
There's where my heart is turning ever;
There's where the old folks stay.


'The Old Folks at Home' (1851)


Way down upon the Swanee River, Far, far, away, There's where my heart is turning ever; There's where the old folks stay.

Way down upon the Swanee River, Far, far, away, There's where my heart is turning ever; There's where the old folks stay.

Way down upon the Swanee River, Far, far, away, There's where my heart is turning ever; There's where the old folks stay.

Way down upon the Swanee River, Far, far, away, There's where my heart is turning ever; There's where the old folks stay.
