Swanee Songtext
von Rufus Wainwright

Swanee, how I loves you, how I loves you
My dear old Swanee
I′d give the world to be among the folks in D-I-X-I

Even though my mammy's waiting for me, praying for me
Down by the Swanee
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore


Swanee, Swanee
I′m coming back to Swanee
Mammy, mammy
I love the old folks at home

I loves you Swanee
How I loves you, how I loves you
My dear old Swanee
I'd give the world if I could only be
Sittin' on my mammy′s knee
I love the old folks, I love the young folks

Oh my honey lama lama mama lama mammy, mammy, mammy
My dear old mammy
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore
